Justification[edit]

What's the point of a single Farlie?

It has a non-powered bogie, but are the 4 driving wheels on a bogie as well? FarleyBrook (talk) 09:16, 26 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

The powered wheels are on a bogie of the same type as used on Double engines. This obviously improves the locos ability to take sharp corners compared to an equivalent loco with fixed driving axles. Eheaps (talk) 08:59, 27 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
