I agree with Paul, and I think Paul is confirming what timz suspects.  That is, you need quartering on a wheelset where power is transmitted to it by side rods.  It makes no difference whether those rods are being driven by a reciprocating engine or by another wheel that is being driven by a torsional motor or turbine.  Either way, the rods impose a reciprocating force on the driven wheel.  And when that wheel stops at the end of the reciprocating rod stroke, it does not know which way to turn when the rod reverses its stroke.  So when that happens, the other side makes that decision because it is quartered, and therefore not in the same predicament.
