AHA! As I recall, the Bachmann Spectrum 2-8-0 has as it's prototype the Reading Company I10s Consolidation! Ya gotta love that wide Wooten firebox ... you can spot that fat firebox and the equally fat boiler of the I10s from a long way off.
Even though I could only see the headlight and smokebox front, something deep inside told me that I would be interested in that steam locomotive!
Interesting Trivia ... The Reading Company's well-known T-! Northerns, of the 1976 American Freedom Train fame,
were built in the Reading Shops, using lengthened I10s boilers.
