The common vernacular is "fluted" for ringed.

The term I have seen used for the Rodgers' domes is scalloped.

It is an anachronism for the "Baldwin" 4-4-0.

I see are the fluted domes on the Baldwin and the smooth domes on the Richmond.


Baldwin stopped making fluted domes after 1885. The "Baldwin" 4-4-0 is a much later design.

Most narrow gauge railroads used dirt as ballast. Very few were ever "ballasted". The dirt between the ties was from "drainage" ditches formed on each side and  shoveled into the middle of the track.
