Sleek Locos
British locos have mostly had a sleek outside appearance, most foreign locos are and were all cluttered up whith all sorts of pipes and pumps ect. Nearly all early British locos had inside cylinders, A classic example of a beautiful sleek looking loco is Wainwrights D class 4-4-0. If you can find a photo of one have a look. Whats your opinion about outside clutter. I know later more modern locos had outside cylinders but I'm talking about older locos.
