The Harrison Jumbo engine at Pinckneyville is NOT the engine in the Weekend Steam post from the Spring 1948 Farm Album Magazine. The engine in the magazine has lugs that are on an angle, and the lugs on the Pinckneyville engine go straight across the wheel. I looked up some photos of a Jumbo shown at Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, and it, too, has lugs that go straight across. I wonder if Fred Kiser's engines survive. If anyone out there knows, please comment or send an e-mail.
