The Lionel New York Central Freight Set steam locomotive is 0-8-0. Steam locomotives are categorized by their wheel arrangement. The two dominant systems for this are the Whyte notation and UIC classification.
So what does this mean for us? For most of the English speaking world the Whyte notation was used to identify steam locomotives. Each set of wheels were represented with a number. Such as 2-10-2 given to the “Santa Fe” type built by the Santa Fe Railway. The names were given according to region and sometimes for politics the designation was informal.
In European non English speaking countries the UIC classification was used. This designation was for consecutive pairs of wheels or axles and the tag wheels or non-drive wheels were given a capital letter designation. For example the UIC designation 2-C-1 was equivalent to a Whyte 4-6-2 designation.

Great, durable starter set. Pieces are solid and include everything to get started. Most of the starter kit price goes into a high quality engine, cars, connectors and transformer. No additional scenery or additional track. These would need to be additional purchases. If you are planning to keep this for a number of years and is not a "throw away" toy, then this is a good choice. (Robert Erdley)
