A Heavy goods tank engine that is also a mallet type! Wheel arrangement of 0-8-8-0. Manufactured in 1914, and updated in 1923. It could manage a 2.5% slope with a tonnage of 470 tons. During the war they were briefly used as banking engines. these locomotives had wonderful traction and the mallet design made it so it was able to run smoothly on the mountain bends. 15 total locomotives were made. These are Standard gauge. If i had any ability to model these, I would do it myself but unfortunately I cannot.

people where working on articulated locos with overhauled but officially the game does not support couplers on the bogies (something the articulated section would technically be (they got around this by making the front part technically a different vehicle)

So you had to couple them?

mark- Hyce played with it a bit for a video and I think the coupling mechcanics were the same as a tender to an engine sorta deal. So, more or less yes you did have to couple them

it was also apparently a custom version of CCL as well, that. If I had to guess does not even exist anymore.

#

But you'd need to ask katy about that
