Hi,

I was looking at the Garrett home page. On the "Proposals on a Garratt theme" page, there was a drawing of what was called "Vulcan Foundry 1931 - a Climax/Garratt for the Rimutaka Incline(NZRLS)" - an 0-6-0+0-6-0 powered like a Climax. Almost like the 7.5" gauge live steamer's Clishay.

Also I liked the proposal for a "LIMA Prelimary design 605, Garratt style Hump Shay, 6 cylinder 4 truck shay 1927". That would have made one interesting sound with as many as 12 exhaust beats per revolution.
