0-6-0+0-6-0

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An 0-6-0+0-6-0, in the Whyte notation for the classification of steam locomotives by wheel arrangement, is a Garratt articulated locomotive.

Other equivalent classifications are:
UIC classification: C+C (also known as German classification and Italian classification)
French classification: 030+030
Turkish classification: 33+33
Swiss classification: 3/3+3/3

The wheel arrangement is effectively two 0-6-0 locomotives operating back to back.

This was a rare class of Garratt. Beyer, Peacock, the owner of the Garratt patent, only built two of this type, to 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) gauge, for the Buthidaung-Maungdaw Tramway in Burma. Belgian builder Société Anonyme St. Leonard of Liège constructed thirty-two for the Compagnie du C.F. du Congo, and two for the SNCV, while Hanomag, of Hanover, Germany, constructed a single locomotive for the Limburg Tramway. This last was the only inside-cylinder Garratt.^[1]^[2]
