British Railways considered their Beyer-Garratts to be tank engines. They allowed them to run at the same speed backwards as forwards.
They had 3 classes of B-G. LNER had a single big one. LMS had a bunch of them. The later ones had a rotating coal bunker to make the fireman's job a bit easier. (It looked a bit like a cement truck.)

In model railroading, there are between six and two hundred ways of performing a given task.
Most modellers can get two of them to work.
