No flange on the second pair of driving wheels? edit

The Forney's purchased by South Side Rapid Transit (the first el line in Chicago) had flanges on both drivers, if I am to believe this photo -- Built by Baldwin. This drawing from 1892 also shows flanges. Lake Street El no 9 is in the St. Louis Museum of Transportation, and this photo seems to show flanges on all drivers -- Built by the R.I. Locomotive Works.
