Summary
[edit]DescriptionBaldwin 4-2-0 geared truck locomotive 1840 ad (grayscale, contrast stretch).jpg |
English: Side view drawing of a Baldwin locomotive and tender from an 1840 Baldwin, Vail and Hufty advertisement. Although this locomotive looks like a normal 4-2-0 in most respects, it actually has all wheels driven and is thus technically an 0-6-0 of unusual form. The wheels of the leading truck are driven from side rods on the main driving wheels via a geared jackshaft. Baldwin only built one locomotive with this configuration, in 1841; its appearance differed substantially from this conceptual rendition. It was a predecessor to Baldwin's flexible beam truck locomotives, introduced in 1842. |
