The photo and caption of the 5001 came from the book BELEN. Link provided in post. Not part of orignal article. Blueprint of the 5001 show it had a Front Delivery Standard Stoker.

Stoker, schmoker.  That's only half the puzzle.

The print also says it had a "Foam Meter".  Was this to measure the trackside railfan's excitability as the engine went past them?
