Woops, missed that part. 0-8-0.
And by the way, for ANYONE interested in steam, Drury's Guide To North American Steam Locomotives is almost as essential as J. David's bible. Sure, it has a few errors and typos, but overall it is an excellent book.

Ran (actually limped) out to Hill's Hobbies in Des Plaines and bought a copy.
