Data from "The First 'Mallet' Compound Locomotives," The Locomotive Magazine, Vol VIII (6 June 1903), p. 395. See also Anatole Mallet, Etude sur L'Utilisation de la Vapeur dans les Locomotives et L'Application a ces Machines du Fonctionnement Compound (Paris: Librairie Polytechnique Ch. Beranger, Ed, 1878), especially pp. 126-131.
Swiss Anatole Mallet was the first engineer to devise a workable compounding system, which applied first to these small tank locomotives. One of his insights was the use of a valve that allowed the two cylinders to be operated either in simple-expansion mode or compound. One feature of this class was an exceptionally tall stack, called for by the B-A-B's use of double-deck coaches.
Only later would Mallet become better known for his two-engine articulated locomotives.
