Moguls 2-6-0 offered about 50% more traction effort than a 4-4-0 and were originally used as freight engines. As trains got heavier they went into lighter passenger and yard service. They were last built around 1929.

David VanSickle purchased the uncompleted kit from George Wale
and completed the engine and tender in about 1 1/2 years. It is
the second-off locomotive of this type produced by Railroad
Supply. It has run mainly on the club tracks, at exhibitions
and once visited the Northeastern Ohio Live Steam Club. The
present boiler (from Mamoth) was mounted in 1989. It will pull
4 fully loaded club gondolas. There is no actual prototype
however it follows Baldwin lines generally and is similar to
some more modern (1920) small logging company locomotives.
