"the Mason"

[edit]

Someone added a line naming this wheel arrangement "the Mason". I can find zero historical reference to support this. I suspect someone is confused over the name "Mason Bogie", which describes a system of articulation, not a wheel arrangement (there were Mason Bogies in more than one wheel arrangement). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:589:102:B920:BDBD:5002:5C1:1A38 (talk) 20:38, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

John Lucas

[edit]

Whilst looking for 4-4-2T four wheelers I nearly made a an even bigger idiot of myself by attempting to claim the 1878 "John Lucas" of the Camden and Atlantic Railroad was the first 4-4-2T.
