French Purrey Boiler Locomotives - Douglas Self
Valentin Purrey of Bordeaux were leading manufacturers of steam lorries, and specialised in vertical boilers. The distinctive front-end design is reminiscent of the early wind-splitting locomotives of the early 1880's, which had sharp-edged front ends in an attempt at streamlining.

Raul | Thomas the Tank Engine Wikia | Fandom
Raul is based on a series of three vertical-boiler steam locomotives built by Sentinel in 1931 for the São Paulo Railway. The real engine carrying his number was in service at the Amsted Maxion railway equipment factory in Cruzeiro, Brazil from 1959 until October 2014. In 2015, it and classmate 167 were preserved by the ABPF; the third engine

High-pressure steam locomotive - Wikipedia
A high-pressure steam locomotive is a steam locomotive with a boiler that operates at pressures well above what would be considered normal. In the later years of steam, boiler pressures were typically 200 to 250 psi (1.38 to 1.72 MPa). High-pressure locomotives can be considered to start at 350 psi (2.41 MPa), when special construction

Mallet locomotive - Wikipedia
The Mallet locomotive is a type of articulated steam railway locomotive, invented by the Swiss engineer Anatole Mallet (1837–1919). The articulation was achieved by supporting the front of the locomotive on an extended Bissel truck. The compound steam system fed steam at boiler pressure to high-pressure cylinders driving the main set of

Vertical Boiler Locomotives - Douglas Self Many steam locomotives have been built with vertical boilers, though horizontal boilers are greatly in the majority. A vertical boiler allowed a locomotive to be built on a short and narrow wheelbase, allowing it to negotiate the tight curves and narrow gauge tracks typically found in industrial railways.

Steam turbine locomotive - Wikipedia
Boiler control was largely automatic, and the two locomotives could be connected together into a multiple unit, both controlled from a single cab. The boiler was oil-fired, and the fuel was "Bunker C" heavy fuel oil, the same fuel used in large vessels, and also the fuel which was later used in Union Pacific's gas turbine-electric locomotives .
