Introduced in the 19th century, the 0-6-0 model locomotive was one of the earliest models ever introduced to rail roads. With the first known use being in the UK (Royal George -- 1827) the 0-6-0 would become a staple on European rail-ways with the vast majority of countries relying on the 0-6-0. It wouldn''t take long from the Royal George model of 1827 for the 0-6-0 to gain attention, with models becoming very prominent throughout, much of the world by the mid-1850s. Standing the test of time is no easy task, but the 0-6-0 was up to the challenge, and would prove its usefulness well into the 20th century gaining prominence in dock-yard railways thanks to their smaller wheel design. The 0-6-0 was a pioneer of the rail-road industry, and now serves a pleasant reminder of how far the industry has come!
