Ray Drake, Cripple Creek, CO.  wrote a book "American Steam Rollers"   
He might have the information or know who would.

I think a member of the Connecticut Antique Machinery Museum has a  
ten ton tandem B-S Roller.

There may be different 10 ton tandem styles, early rollers had  
vertical engines, later rollers had horizontal engines.

I am not sure if the 10 ton model was made both ways
