"Swing Donkey" is what the caption in my source said. I reproduced that term, figuring that it was something slightly different I didn't know. In fact, I worried about correcting it and having someone say, "That's not a steam donkey; it is the slightly different swing donkey."

Also, thank you for being such a close reader!

I Googled and found one obscure reference to a “swing donkey,” so I stand corrected!! https://oit.libraryhost.com/repositories/2/archival_objects/3150
