Wrong this time.
Todd,
there are numerous fastenings visible along the paired rails to maintain the gauge and rail separation in the four rail track on that sharp of a curve; it does indeed resemble part of a switch. This trackage appears in several companion Otto Roach images of the C&S 76 there in the Mineral Belt II, that allows better understanding of the geometry.
While I'm "talking" to Todd.
Your Inspection car could have been made by Sheffield, Kalamazoo, or Handlan-Buck, Buda and others. Note there is a sprocket on the front axle that may have been pedalled under the front seat.
