Perhaps this category should be a bit more general.Instead of individual locomotives,How about types by wheel arrangement and names
0-10-0 ,2-6-2,4-8-4,climax,heisler,Shay, 4-6-2,2-8-0, etc etc.This would be much more helpful to manufacturers in general.The voting above shows that someones list of individually numbered trains is a bit on the weak side.......

No railroad could beat the good old Norfolk & Western for steam power! They fought dieselization harder than any other class 1 R.R. Of course the N&W J-class ruled.
