Dave, no offense meant, but the previous post asked for prototype information on 0-4-0 Camelbacks used in Utah or Virginia. Unfortunately, he resurrected a thread which has been dead for over 10 years, instead of asking the question in the appropriate "Prototype Information" section. To the question - I am not aware that any other railroad other than Reading used 0-4-0 Camelback switchers. One of the reasons the Camelback design was adopted, was the large Wootten firebox left no room for a cab. The Wootten firebox was developed to burn Anthracite waste, which was not available in Utah.
