Has anyone attempted this model. I saw it at the Franklin Institute of Technology in Philadelphia.

Speaking only for myself but I think I can safely say that question probably wouldn't garner a "Do it yourself then" reply because it was presented in a civil manner and not as a "Hey drop what your doing and make this for me now" postGary S

I don't think they named this class of engine other than the '3 Cylinder'. Apparently the first axle was cranked separately from the other drivers.
I looked for information on it, I found this:http://www.steamlocomotive.com/3cylinder/

RE: Baldwin #60000
The 60000 was refered to as a Vauclain Compound after Sameul Vauclain who designed the 3 cylinder system utilized by this locomotive. In actuality the third cylinder drove the second axle which, if you look very closely, is why the first driver is slightly set forward so as to clear the drive rod to the second axle crank.
