There may actually have been an 0-2-0 locomotive - if you are willing to include monorail engines in your definition. I went hunting through my "6th Edition of the Guiness Book of Railway Facts and Feats" and came up with the following: <br />1. The Listowel and Ballybunion Railway (in County Kerry, Ireland) was opened on 1 March 1888 and ran for 9 miles. The twin-boilered locomotives and cars straddled the rail which was supported on trestles. Loads had to be balanced. While it does not describe the wheel configuration of the engines, an accompanying photo shows that they may have been of an 0-2-0 design (or 0-1-0 or even 0-1-1-0). <br />2. The Patiala State Monorail Trainway (owned by the Patiala Government, India) had a single rail which was laid along the edge of a road with balancing wheels running along the road. About 95% of the load was carried on the rail, and 5% on the sprung road wheels. In March 1909, four 0-3-0 steam locomotives were built for this monorail. One has been restored and operates at the Indian Railway Museum, New Delhi. <br />I don't think this answers your question, but it does show that anything is possible. <br />
