All 2-10-10-2 locomotives have been articulated locomotives of the Mallet type. This wheel arrangement was rare. Only two classes of 2-10-10-2 locomotives have been built: the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway's 3000 class, and the Virginian Railway's class AE. The 3000 class performed poorly, so the railroad returned them to their original ...
In addition the 2-10-2, like the 2-6-2, had its main rod connected to the middle coupled axle, very near to the centre of gravity, which created a violent nosing (waddling) action when operating at speed. The peak of the 2-10-2 design limitations was reached in the United States in 1926 and was overcome with the advent of the superior 2-10-4 ...
Locomotives classified 2-10-2 under the Whyte notation of locomotive axle arrangements. The equivalent UIC classification of locomotive axle arrangements is 1′E1′ locomotives . Subcategories
Union Pacific 5511 is a 2-10-2 “Santa Fe” type steam locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1923 as part of the Union Pacific Railroad's TTT-6 class. It is the last remaining member of its class and the only remaining 2-10-2 to be operated by the Union Pacific. The locomotive ran in revenue service until being withdrawn in 1956.
The only quadruplex locomotive built was No. 2096 for the National Railway Company of Belgium. The locomotive built by the Ateliers Métallurgiques de Tubize in Belgium was the first locomotive ever with Franco-Crosti boilers. The 0-6-2+2-4-2-4-2+2-6-0 locomotive consisted of three articulated sections with a total of four engines.

The Class 18 2-10-2 Santa Fe type steam locomotive was designed by Colonel F.R. Collins DSO, Chief Mechanical Engineer (CME) of the South African Railways (SAR) from 1922 to 1929, and built by Henschel and Son in Germany. Two locomotives were delivered in 1927 and 1928, numbered 1360 and 1361. [1] [2] [5]
The evolution of this locomotive type began as a 2-10-2 Santa Fe type with a larger four-wheeled trailing truck that would allow an enlarged firebox. A subsequent development was as an elongated 2-8-4 Berkshire type that required extra driving wheels to remain within axle load limits.
