Robert Fairlie (1831-1885) developed one of the first double steam locomotives, which was commissioned in 1865. Their special advantages were the good usability of driving sharp and inclined curvatures. ==References====External links== In the 19th century, locomotives were used successfully, mainly in Chile, Mexico and Russia. In contrast to the English edition, the German edition treats only "generally comparable facts and experiences". On the other hand, in an appendix, among other things, Fairlie's remarks about M. M. von Weber's writing "The Practice of Construction and Operation of Secundary Railways" were added. - Ottley 3668 (note) – A little patchy, several times stamped.
