Bob - I do not know (doubtful any records exist, either), but I'd speculate that since inside-connection was considered archaic in US steam locomotive design by that time, No. 9 was converted to conventional outside-connection. It almost certainly would've received a standard full size tender, too.

Interesting!  I wonder if No. 9 retained the inside drive in the 1864-65 rebuild.  Or was the photo taken after the rebuild?

Jan - Thanks for sharing images of CB&Q Nos. 307 and 155. Much appreciate. I think the two oldest images I can contribute are of CB&Q 9 and 94:

CB&Q inside connected No. 9 with tiny one-truck tender. According to the Corbin book, No. 9 had an unknown origin, was rebuilt at the Aurora Shops in 1864-5 and retired at an unknown date.

 
CB&Q 94 was a dainty 4-4-0T with elaborate paint scheme. According to the Corbin book, No. 94 was built by Rogers in 1863 and retired at an unknown date.

Any List member who hasn't visited Jan's magnificent web site is really missing out as Jan has accumulated and digitalized the definitive collection of Q steam locomotive images. Any other really old Q images out there for sharing?
