Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In rail transport, a wheel arrangement is a system of classifying the way in which wheels are distributed beneath a locomotive. Several notations exist to describe the wheel assemblies of a locomotive by type, position, and connections, with the adopted notations varying by country. Within a given country, different notations may also be employed for different kinds of locomotives, such as steam, electric, and diesel powered. Especially in steam days, wheel arrangement was an important attribute of a locomotive because there were many different types of layout adopted, each wheel being optimised for a different use. Modern diesel and electric locomotives are much more uniform, usually with all axles driven.
