One of the knocks on the Garratt for US service is that it used its fuel and water for adhesive weight. The farther you got up the mountain, the more coal and water you used, and the less weight you had on the drivers, and the more slipping you'd do. <br /> <br />Garratt fanciers liked to say that Mallets had to drag around a separate car for their consumables, but the farther you got up the mountain, the more coal and water you used, and the lighter your trailing load became. But you still had the full weight on your driving wheels. <br /> <br />Old Timer
