I found this 0-8-0 at a museum - http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7429/1...6bd9a143_o.jpg and another photo here http://5c.ro/5c-poze/triaj/pz/PICT0147.jpg
It was made in the '80s (well the 1880s anyway), uses an outer frame (which is why the wheels are hard to see), has a corkscrew brake system and tops at 40 kmh. I absolutely love the valve gear design. Typical to most hungarian engines. renders (with genuine 1880s colors):

  And the CABIN. Left handwheel controls the cylinder drains. Handle underneath controls (i believe) the firebox dampers. The firebox door is pretty obvious, and so are the ashpan levers underneath it. Just over the firebox door is a glass sight that measures the water level inside the boiler. To its left are three failsafe measurement taps. The right of the engine holds the drivers controls (regulator, reverser handle and sander lever). On the lower image you can see the manifold, from where you can inject fresh water into the boiler from the two side tanks (injectors are located underneath the cabin).
