Tractive Force ?
editThis must have been among the most powerful locomotives built - does anyone have any specs? How did it compare to challengers and big boys or other similar locomotives? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.31.184.166 (talk) 20:53, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
- Please see the final paragraph of 2-8-8-8-2#Overview_of_Triplex_engineering and the first paragraph of Tractive_effort#Values_and_comparisons_for_steam_locomotives for the best information on this topic that Wikipedia currently has. It cites various figures and does not make clear whether there was much difference between Baldwin's 2 Triplex models (2-8-8-8-2 and 2-8-8-8-4). Hopefully eventually more definitive info will find its way here from secondary sources. — ¾-10 17:22, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
