[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by vsmith</i> <br /><br />Hello Railroading Brit, <br /> <br />I could tell you the truth about the "Big Joe", but then I'd have to kill you.....[;)] <br /> <br />I think you might be correct about the Beyer-Garret's, but I beleive the largest were used in South Africa and in size, wieght and power they could give a Big Boy a run for its money. Any idea's of where to find out who had the largest Beyer-Garret ? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />The New ZeaLand Rail Garretts were 85 feet long over the buffers with 51,580 pounds at only 75% boiler pressure. They were six cylinder models and arranged so that 3 cylinders drove each engine unit. They were 4-8-8-4's. NZR gauge is 3' 6". That same as South Africa and some States of Australia. CAN ANYONE PLEASE TELL ME WHERE I CAN OBTAIN AN 'ho' GAUGE MODEL OF A BEYER GARRETT?
