What an excellent photo of this Italian classic. It shows the leading Zara truck arrangement with the leading drivers and the front carrying wheels in a truck to give something of the effect of a 4 wheel leading truck. In Italy it is the 'Carello Italiano'.

It also shows well the outside valve chest and Walschearts valve gear on an inside cylinder loco - a feature not found very often but common on Italian 2-6-0s.
