Basis
Cleveland is based on a USRA Light Mikado. While lacking the weight and strength of their Heavy counterparts, the Light Mikados were designed to be more versatile, able to be used on track with lighter loading gauges. Different power classifications were given to these by different railroads, and hundreds of copies were made. Many originals and copies have been preserved.

Livery
Cleveland is painted in the Dallas and Northern Railroad's Fast Freight Blue.
