I guess this is the buried engine discussed here before. Looks like a turn of the century compound to me. A BLW 2-8-0?

Yes, Baldwin 2-8-0 #16117/1898; more details and pictures in the previous thread:

"Lost Locomotive" discovered - in China!

The lastest posting to the Flimsies section shows the locomotive out of the mud and on rails again, with the tender in the background:
