Johnathan,

The Number 2 has poling pockets. All five had poling pockets. The picture on the Rapido website was taken after the September 1959 tornado. It took down the part
of the engine house the housed the engine.

According to Trains Magazine (response to a letter, March 2015), the ICC never banned poling. It was prohibited at different times by different railroads, mostly before or during the 1960s.
 
But here's an interesting shot of BN nos. 1 and 2. Note that no. 1 has poling pockets, but no. 2 does not. It looks to me like the pockets on the ex-9103 are add-ons.
