In a broader sense it can be applied to the locomotives in service on an entire railroad. The proper proportioning of the locomotive stud is a subject of interesting speculation in model railroading, and while it's fun to build appealing engines as they turn up from time to time, it is wiser to plan out in advance the entire stud which will be built for years to come.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eAs a beginning premise it is perhaps well to decide whether the locomotive stud will be proportioned so that trains on the model railroad will look right, according to the best practice, or whether the locomotives will be proportioned according to other considerations. It has been truthfully said that any type of locomotive can be used for any kind of 'train, and the prototype would be found somewhere in actual practice. Articulated locomotives can be found pulling freight trains of 10 cars. Consolidations have been known to work hot shot passengers. Pacifies will pull freight runs, switch engines sometimes work road trains, and so on. However, we think it is best to work locomotives according to their usual purposes, as this will result in the best appearance of traffic on the finished model railroad.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eMost of you will agree that for a first engine, it is best to pick a small, general purpose type of locomotive. A Pacific, with 69\" or 72\" drivers, admirable for this purpose, as it can be used for  short freight trains, passenger work, and even for yard switching. It looks quite all right in any one of these services, and makes a perfectly congruous train. A Ten-Wheeler is another locomotive which fits in well as a starter. If the road is only going to run freight service at first, perhaps a Consolidation will do fine, and in these days there is always the possibility of using a Diesel-electric type for all three classes of service.
