Wild West 2-4-4T steam loco - real world MOC - with freight train

This Western 2-4-4 tank engine I'm using as a switcher. In my fictional backstory I wrote, loco No. 4 was originally a 0-4-4 Forney loco that soon needed a leading two wheel pony truck to operate better at speed and keep wear down on the front set of driving wheels. Of course, in reality, it was first built as a 4-2-4T like the C.P. Huntington you can still see in the California State RR Museum, or at you local Zoo / amusement park, as smaller-scale replicas are made by Chance Rides for places like that.

See comments for more pictures and info on the freight cars.
