Not For Use On 1st Radius Curves..

...or even 5th radius by looks of it.
The PRR S1 of 1939. The only loco ever to have a 6-4-4-6 wheel arrangement.

Very big, impressive yet strange locomotive! with 4 cylinders, yet each pair is only driving 4 wheels, you would think each would be controlling 6 or even 8. odd, seems an interesting prototype! Like you say, not for 1st radius!

And the engine drivers have to be 7' tall! (According to the spec. on Pol's post   )
