Oooh.... nice ten wheeler!

What was the largest wheel type built for the Swedish railways?

[1956]

If you call this a ten wheeler I suppose it must be a twelve wheeler, the F class. This one is called A6.

Rikard, in the Whyte system, a 4-6-0 was known as a Ten-Wheeler... are you saying the largest were 4-6-2s, also known as Pacifics?
