An interesting photo on eBay at

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/7E770-RP-1899-1940s-CB-Q-BURLINGTON-RAILROAD-ENGINE-1382-PRINCETON-IL-/401359792208?hash=item5d72e86850:g:QYAAAOSw3YJZXB7I

showing engine #1382 (G-1) at Princeton with what appears to be a steam powered derrick on the rear complete with its own tender. The photo dates from between 1904 (when the 1300 number series was commenced) and the engine’s retirement in 1911. 1382 was originally an H-5 2-6-0 #1280 (ex I&StL #5, built in 1871 by Hinkley) but I don’t know when it was converted to an 0-6-0.

I’ve found a photo dated 1899 of the same or similar derrick, apparently grading the embankment. Would anyone have a better photo of the derrick?
