I'd never realized the cylinders were only on one side, but got a nice walk around up close on this.

Almost looks to be sitting on the dirt.

In the woods of Wisconsin, crew pose alongside their charge, Rust-Owen Lumber Company "Ten-Wheeler" number 3. This lovely coal-burning 4-6-0 was built by the Pittsburgh Locomotive Works in 1892, and delivered to the Drummond & Southwestern, which had begun operations in August of 1891 and was absorbed by the Rust-Owen Lumber Company in June of 1912. The logging lines branched out from Drummond, Wisconsin and the final operation wasn't wound down until 1930. There is no date on this photo, but I know that it's post-1910 as that is when the railroad replaced its link-n-pin couplers with standard knuckles. Notice however that number 3 sports the unusual configuration of two different coupler heights on her pilot.
