The Mystery 5th Disney Train

I told you the story about the Four Baldwins so I could tell you this one. Part of the credit for this comes from fellow engineer and train enthusiast Robert Jacks (represent!). We were discussing trains and railroad history and got on the topic of the Merida trains, specifically the fifth train that was brought up and not used, except for parts and whatnot.

Then I asked the simple question: Wait, what kind of train was it? We assumed it was another Baldwin? Was it a 2-6-0 or a 4-6-0? We realized we knew nothing about this train.

Time for research.
