For reference - spotting features for camelback locos seen from the (almost) front:

• Only one dome (sand box) between cab front and stack.
• Space between cab and tender filled with the wide skirts (with air tanks above) of the Wooten firebox.
• A second 'cab front' just ahead of the tender, for the fireman's shelter.

The loco in the photo has a narrow firebox and the cab at the rear of the boiler, with the tender close behind the rear of the cab.  Definitely not an anthracite burner; and Ohio isn't anthracite country.

Hello. I am hoping someone can help me identify this old steam locomotive # 1311. Any information would be helpful. I think it is a camelback with a wooten firebox - but I really don't know anything about trains. The only help I can give is that the postcard has a Station A Cleveland Ohio cancel and is postmarked April 23, 1910. There is a B. D. scratched into the negative, but maybe that was supposed to be B. O.

Thank you for your assistance.

Tim
