Most, if not all of them were in steam. (that is railway, and maybe all steam, talk for working) I wonder how (if) they had to co-ordinate the motive effort?

Maybe somebody here with more railway knowledge than me (my father spent some time working on the railway but apart from what I learned then, I know nothing about the subject)

Thirteen by my count, but they all seemed to be running rich.
