All the tubes together provide a large contact area, called the tube heating surface, between the gas and water in the boiler. Boiler water surrounds the firebox to stop the metal from becoming too hot. This is another area where the gas transfers heat to the water and is called the firebox heating surface. Ash and char collect in the smokebox as the gas gets drawn up the chimney (<i>stack</i> or <i>smokestack</i> in the US) by the exhaust steam from the cylinders. </p><p>The pressure in the boiler has to be monitored using a gauge mounted in the cab.

The steam entrains or drags the smokebox gases with it which maintains a lower pressure in the smokebox than that under the firebox grate. This pressure difference causes air to flow up through the coal bed and keeps the fire burning. </p><p>The search for <a href="/wiki/Thermal_efficiency" title="Thermal efficiency">thermal efficiency</a> greater than that of a typical fire-tube boiler led engineers, such as <a href="/wiki/Nigel_Gresley" title="Nigel Gresley">Nigel Gresley</a>, to consider the <a href="/wiki/Water-tube_boiler" title="Water-tube boiler">water-tube boiler</a>. Although he tested the concept on the <a href="/wiki/LNER_Class_W1" title="LNER Class W1">LNER Class W1</a>, the difficulties during development exceeded the will to increase efficiency by that route. </p><p>The steam generated in the boiler not only moves the locomotive, but is also used to operate other devices such as the whistle, the air compressor for the brakes, the pump for replenishing the water in the boiler and the passenger car heating system. The constant demand for steam requires a periodic replacement of water in the boiler. The water is kept in a tank in the locomotive tender or wrapped around the boiler in the case of a <a href="/wiki/Tank_locomotive" title="Tank locomotive">tank locomotive</a>. Periodic stops are required to refill the tanks; an alternative was a scoop installed under the tender that collected water as the train passed over a <a href="/wiki/Track_pan" class="mw-redirect" title="Track pan">track pan</a> located between the rails. </p><p>While the locomotive is producing steam, the amount of water in the boiler is constantly monitored by looking at the water level in a transparent tube, or sight glass. Efficient and safe operation of the boiler requires keeping the level in between lines marked on the sight glass. If the water level is too high, steam production falls, efficiency is lost and water is carried out with the steam into the cylinders, possibly causing mechanical damage. More seriously, if the water level gets too low, the crown sheet (top sheet) of the firebox becomes exposed. Without water on top of the sheet to transfer away the <a href="/wiki/Heat_of_combustion" title="Heat of combustion">heat of combustion</a>, it softens and fails, letting high-pressure steam into the firebox and the cab. The development of the <a href="/wiki/Fusible_plug" title="Fusible plug">fusible plug</a>, a temperature-sensitive device, ensured a controlled venting of steam into the firebox to warn the fireman to add water. </p><p>Scale builds up in the boiler and prevents adequate heat transfer, and corrosion eventually degrades the boiler materials to the point where it needs to be rebuilt or replaced. Start-up on a large engine may take hours of preliminary heating of the boiler water before sufficient steam is available. </p><p>Although the boiler is typically placed horizontally, for locomotives designed to work in locations with steep slopes it may be more appropriate to consider a <a href="/wiki/Vertical_boiler" title="Vertical boiler">vertical boiler</a> or one mounted such that the boiler remains horizontal but the wheels are inclined to suit the slope of the rails. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Steam_circuit">Steam circuit</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Steam_locomotive&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Steam circuit"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1251242444"><table class="box-More_citations_needed_section plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-content ambox-Refimprove" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Question_book-new.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/50px-Question_book-new.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="39" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/75px-Question_book-new.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/100px-Question_book-new.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="399" /></a></span></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">This section <b>needs additional citations for <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability">verification</a></b>.<span class="hide-when-compact"> Please help <a href="/wiki/Special:EditPage/Steam_locomotive" title="Special:EditPage/Steam locomotive">improve this article</a> by <a href="/wiki/Help:Referencing_for_beginners" title="Help:Referencing for beginners">adding citations to reliable sources</a> in this section.

Its maximum working pressure is limited by spring-loaded safety valves. It is then collected either in a perforated tube fitted above the water level or by a dome that often houses the regulator valve, or throttle, the purpose of which is to control the amount of steam leaving the boiler. The steam then either travels directly along and down a steam pipe to the engine unit or may first pass into the wet header of a <a href="/wiki/Superheater" title="Superheater">superheater</a>, the role of the latter being to improve thermal efficiency and eliminate water droplets suspended in the "saturated steam", the state in which it leaves the boiler. On leaving the superheater, the steam exits the dry header of the superheater and passes down a steam pipe, entering the steam chests adjacent to the cylinders of a reciprocating engine. Inside each steam chest is a sliding valve that distributes the steam via ports that connect the steam chest to the ends of the cylinder space. The role of the valves is twofold: admission of each fresh dose of steam, and exhaust of the used steam once it has done its work. </p><p>The cylinders are double-acting, with steam admitted to each side of the piston in turn. In a two-cylinder locomotive, one cylinder is located on each side of the vehicle. The cranks are set 90° out of phase. During a full rotation of the driving wheel, steam provides four power strokes; each cylinder receives two injections of steam per revolution. The first stroke is to the front of the piston and the second stroke to the rear of the piston; hence two working strokes. Consequently, two deliveries of steam onto each piston face in the two cylinders generates a full revolution of the driving wheel. Each piston is attached to the driving axle on each side by a connecting rod, and the driving wheels are connected together by <a href="/wiki/Coupling_rod" title="Coupling rod">coupling rods</a> to transmit power from the main driver to the other wheels. Note that at the two "<a href="/wiki/Dead_centres" class="mw-redirect" title="Dead centres">dead centres</a>", when the connecting rod is on the same axis as the crankpin on the driving wheel, the connecting rod applies no <a href="/wiki/Torque" title="Torque">torque</a> to the wheel. Therefore, if both cranksets could be at "dead centre" at the same time, and the wheels should happen to stop in this position, the locomotive could not start moving. Therefore, the crankpins are attached to the wheels at a 90° angle to each other, so only one side can be at dead centre at a time. </p><p>Each <a href="/wiki/Piston" title="Piston">piston</a> transmits power through a <a href="/wiki/Crosshead" title="Crosshead">crosshead</a>, <a href="/wiki/Connecting_rod" title="Connecting rod">connecting rod</a> (<i>Main rod</i> in the US) and a crankpin on the <a href="/wiki/Driving_wheel" title="Driving wheel">driving wheel</a> (<i>Main driver</i> in the US) or to a <a href="/wiki/Crank_(mechanism)" title="Crank (mechanism)">crank</a> on a driving axle. The movement of the valves in the steam chest is controlled through a set of rods and linkages called the <a href="/wiki/Valve_gear" title="Valve gear">valve gear</a>, actuated from the driving axle or from the crankpin; the valve gear includes devices that allow reversing the engine, adjusting valve travel and the timing of the admission and exhaust events. The <a href="/wiki/Cutoff_(steam_engine)" title="Cutoff (steam engine)">cut-off</a> point determines the moment when the valve blocks a steam port, "cutting off" admission steam and thus determining the proportion of the stroke during which steam is admitted into the cylinder; for example a 50% cut-off admits steam for half the stroke of the piston. The remainder of the stroke is driven by the expansive force of the steam. Careful use of cut-off provides economical use of steam and in turn, reduces fuel and water consumption. The reversing lever (<i><a href="/wiki/Johnson_bar_(vehicle)" title="Johnson bar (vehicle)">Johnson bar</a></i> in the US), or screw-reverser (if so equipped), that controls the cut-off, therefore, performs a similar function to a <a href="/wiki/Gearshift" class="mw-redirect" title="Gearshift">gearshift</a> in an automobile – maximum cut-off, providing maximum <a href="/wiki/Tractive_effort" title="Tractive effort">tractive effort</a> at the expense of efficiency, is used to pull away from a standing start, whilst a cut-off as low as 10% is used when cruising, providing reduced tractive effort, and therefore lower fuel/water consumption.<sup id="cite_ref-Ahrons,_1925_36-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Ahrons,_1925-36"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Exhaust steam is directed upwards out of the locomotive through the chimney, by way of a nozzle called a <a href="/wiki/Blastpipe" title="Blastpipe">blastpipe</a>, creating the familiar "chuffing" sound of the steam locomotive. The blastpipe is placed at a strategic point inside the smokebox that is at the same time traversed by the combustion gases drawn through the boiler and grate by the action of the steam blast. The combining of the two streams, steam and exhaust gases, is crucial to the efficiency of any steam locomotive, and the internal profiles of the chimney (or, strictly speaking, the <i>ejector</i>) require careful design and adjustment. This has been the object of intensive studies by a number of engineers (and often ignored by others, sometimes with catastrophic consequences). The fact that the draught depends on the exhaust pressure means that power delivery and power generation are automatically self-adjusting. Among other things, a balance has to be struck between obtaining sufficient draught for combustion whilst giving the exhaust gases and particles sufficient time to be consumed. In the past, a strong draught could lift the fire off the grate, or cause the ejection of unburnt particles of fuel, dirt and pollution for which steam locomotives had an unenviable reputation. Moreover, the pumping action of the exhaust has the counter-effect of exerting <i>back pressure</i> on the side of the piston receiving steam, thus slightly reducing cylinder power.

The transmission of the power from the pistons to the rails and the behaviour of the locomotive as a vehicle, being able to negotiate curves, points and irregularities in the track, is of paramount importance. Because reciprocating power has to be directly applied to the rail from 0 rpm upwards, this creates the problem of adhesion of the driving wheels to the smooth rail surface. Adhesive weight is the portion of the locomotive's weight bearing on the driving wheels. This is made more effective if a pair of driving wheels is able to make the most of its axle load, i.e. its individual share of the adhesive weight. <a href="/wiki/Equalising_beam" title="Equalising beam">Equalising beams</a> connecting the ends of <a href="/wiki/Leaf_spring" title="Leaf spring">leaf springs</a> have often been deemed a complication in Britain, however, locomotives fitted with the beams have usually been less prone to loss of traction due to wheel-slip. Suspension using equalizing levers between driving axles, and between driving axles and trucks, was standard practice on North American locomotives to maintain even wheel loads when operating on uneven track. </p><p>Locomotives with total adhesion, where all of the wheels are coupled together, generally lack stability at speed. To counter this, locomotives often fit unpowered <a href="/wiki/Carrying_wheels" class="mw-redirect" title="Carrying wheels">carrying wheels</a> mounted on two-wheeled trucks or four-wheeled <a href="/wiki/Bogie" title="Bogie">bogies</a> centred by springs/inverted rockers/geared rollers that help to guide the locomotive through curves. These usually take on weight – of the cylinders at the front or the firebox at the rear – when the width exceeds that of the mainframes. Locomotives with multiple coupled-wheels on a rigid chassis would have unacceptable flange forces on tight curves giving excessive flange and rail wear, track spreading and wheel climb derailments. One solution was to remove or thin the flanges on an axle. More common was to give axles end-play and use lateral motion control with spring or inclined-plane gravity devices. </p><p>Railroads generally preferred locomotives with fewer axles, to reduce maintenance costs. The number of axles required was dictated by the maximum axle loading of the railroad in question. A builder would typically add axles until the maximum weight on any one axle was acceptable to the railroad's maximum axle loading. A locomotive with a wheel arrangement of two lead axles, two drive axles, and one trailing axle was a high-speed machine. Two lead axles were necessary to have good tracking at high speeds. Two drive axles had a lower reciprocating mass than three, four, five or six coupled axles. They were thus able to turn at very high speeds due to the lower reciprocating mass. A trailing axle was able to support a huge firebox, hence most locomotives with the wheel arrangement of <span class="nowrap"><a href="/wiki/4-4-2_(locomotive)" title="4-4-2 (locomotive)">4-4-2</a></span> (American Type Atlantic) were called free steamers and were able to maintain steam pressure regardless of throttle setting. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Chassis">Chassis</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Steam_locomotive&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: Chassis"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The chassis, or <a href="/wiki/Locomotive_frame" title="Locomotive frame">locomotive frame</a>, is the principal structure onto which the boiler is mounted and which incorporates the various elements of the running gear.

As steam pressures increased, however, a problem of "foaming" or "priming" developed in the boiler, wherein dissolved solids in the water formed "tough-skinned bubbles" inside the boiler, which in turn were carried into the steam pipes and could blow off the cylinder heads. To overcome the problem, hot mineral-concentrated water was deliberately wasted (blown down) from the boiler periodically. Higher steam pressures required more blowing-down of water out of the boiler. Oxygen generated by boiling water attacks the boiler, and with increased steam pressure the rate of rust (iron oxide) generated inside the boiler increases. One way to help overcome the problem was water treatment.

As the boiler is under pressure during operation, feedwater must be forced into the boiler at a pressure that is greater than the steam pressure, necessitating the use of some sort of pump. Hand-operated pumps sufficed for the very earliest locomotives. Later engines used pumps driven by the motion of the pistons (axle pumps), which were simple to operate, reliable and could handle large quantities of water but only operated when the locomotive was moving and could overload the valve gear and piston rods at high speeds. <a href="/wiki/Steam_injector" class="mw-redirect" title="Steam injector">Steam injectors</a> later replaced the pump, while some engines transitioned to <a href="/wiki/Turbopump" title="Turbopump">turbopumps</a>. Standard practice evolved to use two independent systems for feeding water to the boiler; either two steam injectors or, on more conservative designs, axle pumps when running at service speed and a steam injector for filling the boiler when stationary or at low speeds. By the 20th century virtually all new-built locomotives used only steam injectors – often one injector was supplied with "live" steam straight from the boiler itself and the other used exhaust steam from the locomotive's cylinders, which was more efficient (since it made use of otherwise wasted steam) but could only be used when the locomotive was in motion and the regulator was open. Injectors became unreliable if the feedwater was at a high temperature, so locomotives with feedwater heaters, <a href="/wiki/Tank_locomotive" title="Tank locomotive">tank locomotives</a> with the tanks in contact with the boiler and condensing locomotives sometimes used reciprocating steam pumps or turbopumps. </p><p>Vertical glass tubes, known as <a href="/wiki/Sight_glass" title="Sight glass">water gauges</a> or water glasses, show the level of water in the boiler and are carefully monitored at all times while the boiler is being fired. Before the 1870s it was more common to have a series of try-cocks fitted to the boiler within reach of the crew; each try cock (at least two and usually three were fitted) was mounted at a different level. By opening each try-cock and seeing if steam or water vented through it, the level of water in the boiler could be estimated with limited accuracy. As boiler pressures increased the use of try-cocks became increasingly dangerous and the valves were prone to blockage with scale or sediment, giving false readings. This led to their replacement with the sight glass. As with the injectors, two glasses with separate fittings were usually installed to provide independent readings. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Boiler_insulation">Boiler insulation</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Steam_locomotive&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Boiler insulation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Thermal_insulation" title="Thermal insulation">Thermal insulation</a></div> <p>The term for pipe and boiler insulation is "lagging"<sup id="cite_ref-54" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-54"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>53<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> which derives from the <a href="/wiki/Cooper_(profession)" title="Cooper (profession)">cooper's</a> term for a wooden <a href="/wiki/Stave_(wood)" title="Stave (wood)">barrel stave</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-55" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-55"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>54<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Two of the earliest steam locomotives used wooden lagging to insulate their boilers: the <a href="/wiki/Salamanca_(locomotive)" title="Salamanca (locomotive)">Salamanca</a>, the first commercially successful steam locomotive, built in 1812,<sup id="cite_ref-Hamilton_Ellis_1968_20_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hamilton_Ellis_1968_20-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the <a href="/wiki/Locomotion_No._1" title="Locomotion No. 1">Locomotion No. 1</a>, the first steam locomotive to carry passengers on a public rail line.

As there was nothing to prevent the weighted lever from bouncing when the locomotive ran over irregularities in the track, thus wasting steam, the weight was later replaced by a more stable spring-loaded column, often supplied by Salter, a well-known <a href="/wiki/Spring_scale" title="Spring scale">spring scale</a> manufacturer. The danger of these devices was that the driving crew could be tempted to add weight to the arm to increase pressure.

Without draught, the fire will quickly die down and steam pressure will fall. When the locomotive is stopped, or coasting with the regulator closed, there is no exhaust steam to create a draught, so the draught is maintained by means of a blower. This is a ring placed either around the base of the chimney, or around the blast pipe orifice, containing several small steam nozzles directed up the chimney. These nozzles are fed with steam directly from the boiler, controlled by the blower valve. When the regulator is open, the blower valve is closed; when the driver intends to close the regulator, he will first open the blower valve. It is important that the blower be opened before the regulator is closed, since without draught on the fire, there may be <a href="/wiki/Backdraft" title="Backdraft">backdraught</a> – where atmospheric air blows down the chimney, causing the flow of hot gases through the boiler tubes to be reversed, with the fire itself being blown through the firehole onto the footplate, with serious consequences for the crew.

On the narrow-gauged New Zealand railway system, six <a href="/wiki/NZR_KB_class" title="NZR KB class">Kb 4-8-4 locomotives</a> were fitted with boosters, the only <span class="nowrap">3 ft 6 in</span> (<span class="nowrap">1,067 mm</span>) gauge engines in the world to have such equipment. </p><p>Booster engines were also fitted to tender trucks in the US and known as auxiliary locomotives.

It serves two purposes, first, it prevents air being drawn over the top of the fire, rather forcing it to be drawn through it. The second purpose is to safeguard the train crew against blowbacks. It does, however, have a means to allow some air to pass over the top of the fire (referred to as "secondary air") to complete the combustion of gases produced by the fire. </p><p>Firedoors come in multiple designs, the most basic of which is a single piece which is hinged on one side and can swing open onto the footplate. This design has two issues. First, it takes up much room on the footplate, and second, the draught will tend to pull it completely shut, thus cutting off any secondary air. To compensate for this some locomotives are fitted with a latch that prevents the firedoor from closing completely whereas others have a small vent on the door that may be opened to allow secondary air to flow through. Though it was considered to design a firedoor that opens inwards into the firebox thus preventing the inconvenience caused on the footplate, such a door would be exposed to the full heat of the fire and would likely deform, thus becoming useless. </p><p>A more popular type of firedoor consists of a two-piece sliding door operated by a single lever. There are tracks above and below the firedoor which the door runs along. These tracks are prone to becoming jammed by debris and the doors required more effort to open than the aforementioned swinging door. In order to address this some firedoors use powered operation which utilized a steam or air cylinder to open the door. Among these are the butterfly doors which pivot at the upper corner, the pivoting action offers low resistance to the cylinder that opens the door.<sup id="cite_ref-77" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-77"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>76<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Variations">Variations</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Steam_locomotive&action=edit&section=33" title="Edit section: Variations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Numerous variations on the basic locomotive occurred as railways attempted to improve efficiency and performance. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Cylinders">Cylinders</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Steam_locomotive&action=edit&section=34" title="Edit section: Cylinders"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Cylinder_(locomotive)" title="Cylinder (locomotive)">Cylinder (locomotive)</a></div> <p>Early steam locomotives had two cylinders, one either side, and this practice persisted as the simplest arrangement.

These numbers typically represented the number of unpowered leading wheels, followed by the number of driving wheels (sometimes in several groups), followed by the number of un-powered trailing wheels. For example, a yard engine with only 4 driven wheels, without any leading or trailing wheels, would be categorised as a <span class="nowrap"><a href="/wiki/0-4-0" title="0-4-0">0-4-0</a></span> wheel arrangement.

These names were informally given and varied according to region and even politics. </p><p>The UIC classification is used mostly in European countries apart from the United Kingdom.

Therefore, in the 20th century, locomotives began to be rated by power output. A variety of calculations and formulas were applied, but in general railways used <a href="/wiki/Dynamometer_car" title="Dynamometer car">dynamometer cars</a> to measure tractive force at speed in actual road testing. </p><p>British railway companies have been reluctant to disclose figures for drawbar horsepower and have usually relied on <a href="/wiki/Continuous_tractive_effort" class="mw-redirect" title="Continuous tractive effort">continuous tractive effort</a> instead. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Relation_to_wheel_arrangement">Relation to wheel arrangement</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Steam_locomotive&action=edit&section=50" title="Edit section: Relation to wheel arrangement"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Classification is indirectly connected to locomotive performance. Given adequate proportions of the rest of the locomotive, power output is determined by the size of the fire, and for a bituminous coal-fuelled locomotive, this is determined by the grate area. Modern non-compound locomotives are typically able to produce about 40 drawbar horsepower per square foot of grate. Tractive force, as noted earlier, is largely determined by the boiler pressure, the cylinder proportions and the size of the driving wheels. However, it is also limited by the weight on the driving wheels (termed "adhesive weight"), which needs to be at least four times the tractive effort.<sup id="cite_ref-AMBell_57-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AMBell-57"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>56<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The weight of the locomotive is roughly proportional to the power output; the number of axles required is determined by this weight divided by the axleload limit for the trackage where the locomotive is to be used. The number of driving wheels is derived from the adhesive weight in the same manner, leaving the remaining axles to be accounted for by the leading and trailing bogies.<sup id="cite_ref-AMBell_57-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AMBell-57"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>56<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Passenger locomotives conventionally had two-axle leading bogies for better guidance at speed; on the other hand, the vast increase in the size of the grate and firebox in the 20th century meant that a trailing bogie was called upon to provide support. In Europe, some use was made of several variants of the <i><a href="/wiki/Bissel_bogie" class="mw-redirect" title="Bissel bogie">Bissel bogie</a></i> in which the swivelling movement of a single axle truck controls the lateral displacement of the front driving axle (and in one case the second axle too). This was mostly applied to 8-coupled express and mixed traffic locomotives, and considerably improved their ability to negotiate curves whilst restricting overall locomotive wheelbase and maximising adhesion weight. </p><p>As a rule, <a href="/wiki/Switcher_locomotive" title="Switcher locomotive">shunting engines</a> (US: <i>switching engines</i>) omitted leading and trailing bogies, both to maximise tractive effort available and to reduce wheelbase. Speed was unimportant; making the smallest engine (and therefore smallest fuel consumption) for the tractive effort was paramount. Driving wheels were small and usually supported the firebox as well as the main section of the boiler. <a href="/wiki/Banking_engine" class="mw-redirect" title="Banking engine">Banking engines</a> (US: <i>helper engines</i>) tended to follow the principles of shunting engines, except that the wheelbase limitation did not apply, so banking engines tended to have more driving wheels. In the US, this process eventually resulted in the Mallet type engine with its many driven wheels, and these tended to acquire leading and then trailing bogies as guidance of the engine became more of an issue. </p><p>As locomotive types began to diverge in the late 19th century, freight engine designs at first emphasised tractive effort, whereas those for passenger engines emphasised speed. Over time, freight locomotive size increased, and the overall number of axles increased accordingly; the leading bogie was usually a single axle, but a trailing truck was added to larger locomotives to support a larger firebox that could no longer fit between or above the driving wheels. Passenger locomotives had leading bogies with two axles, fewer driving axles, and very large driving wheels in order to limit the speed at which the reciprocating parts had to move. </p><p>In the 1920s, the focus in the United States turned to horsepower, epitomised by the "super power" concept promoted by the Lima Locomotive Works, although tractive effort was still the prime consideration after World War I to the end of steam. Goods trains were designed to run faster, while passenger locomotives needed to pull heavier loads at speed. This was achieved by increasing the size of grate and firebox without changes to the rest of the locomotive, requiring the addition of a second axle to the trailing truck.

This was due to the basic differences of markets in the United States which initially had many small markets located large distances apart, in contrast to Europe's higher density of markets. Locomotives that were cheap and rugged and could go large distances over cheaply built and maintained tracks were required. Once the manufacture of engines was established on a wide scale there was very little advantage to buying an engine from overseas that would have to be customised to fit the local requirements and track conditions. Improvements in engine design of both European and US origin were incorporated by manufacturers when they could be justified in a generally very conservative and slow-changing market. With the notable exception of the <a href="/wiki/USRA_standard" title="USRA standard">USRA standard</a> locomotives built during World War I, in the United States, steam locomotive manufacture was always semi-customised. Railroads ordered locomotives tailored to their specific requirements, though some basic design features were always present. Railroads developed some specific characteristics; for example, the Pennsylvania Railroad and the <a href="/wiki/Great_Northern_Railway_(U.S.)" title="Great Northern Railway (U.S.)">Great Northern Railway</a> had a preference for the Belpaire firebox.<sup id="cite_ref-89" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-89"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>88<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the United States, large-scale manufacturers constructed locomotives for nearly all rail companies, although nearly all major railroads had shops capable of heavy repairs and some railroads (for example, the <a href="/wiki/Norfolk_and_Western_Railway" title="Norfolk and Western Railway">Norfolk and Western Railway</a> and the Pennsylvania Railroad, which had two erecting shops) constructed locomotives entirely in their own shops.<sup id="cite_ref-90" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-90"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>89<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-91" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-91"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>90<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Companies manufacturing locomotives in the US included <a href="/wiki/Baldwin_Locomotive_Works" title="Baldwin Locomotive Works">Baldwin Locomotive Works</a>, <a href="/wiki/American_Locomotive_Company" title="American Locomotive Company">American Locomotive Company</a> (ALCO), and <a href="/wiki/Lima_Locomotive_Works" title="Lima Locomotive Works">Lima Locomotive Works</a>.
