Your image IDed as "barling 2" looks like some fanciful photoshopping. I think
the engines were only between the first and second wing. As shown, it actually
looks too heavy to taxi.

....just my impression...

Somebody goofed. That's the Tarrant Tabor, a British triplane bomber
designed towards the end of the WWI (by Walter Barling) and was briefly the
world's largest aircraft. It pranged, with fatalities, on its first flight.
