    Re: crazy steam train vapour

    My mistake Mark - I've just Googled it and there are plenty of 2-2-2 locomotives that are very clearly steam trains.

      0-6-0 means no leading wheels, 6 drive wheels and no trailing wheels hence 6wd.
      Only the middle pair of wheels are driven in a 2-2-2 arrangement meaning weight wasted on unpowered wheels.

      The coupling rod could be used to provide 6 wheel drive being both functional and good looking.

        The idea for that would be that all 6 wheels are powered, however it only looks like the 2 middle wheels are powered...
