Overall view of the engines.

Picture 2 of 2.

This is an Atlas A, which had no center sustainer engine. The missile was "reconfigured to Atlas D configuration" (Atlases after the A series had all three engines) for display. When they added the center engine, they didn't do all that great of a job -- the engine isn't properly attached to the boattail.
