==Trivia== *The [[Class G]] formerly had a higher tractive effort than the Class B, but as of the 11/16/23 update the Class B took the lead. Ironically enough however, the Class B could pull a heavier load even before the update. *The Class B is the first and only 4-4-0 locomotive added to the game. *The Class B is directly inspired by the [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/SStB_%E2%80%93_Meidling,_H%C3%B6llenthal_und_Neunkirchen SStB "Meidling, Höllenthal and Neunkirchen"] locomotives, first built in 1856. These express engines saw service until 1890. *According to GregTame, the long, unsupported length of the Class B's boiler resulted in the warping of the boiler and its tubes. This led to the development of the improved Class B2, which was made by taking an angle grinder to the boiler to make it a few feet shorter, adding a roofed cab, and converting it to an 0-6-0. *
