Description
The Foden 'C' Type was the final design of the overtype (engine above boiler) Steam Wagon developed from earlier models. This wagon was introduced in the 1920's, and had a double crank compound engine which developed 23 B.H.P. at 450 R.P.M. It was fitted with spur gearing giving speeds up to 27 K.PH., but special gearing could be ordered which would enable the wagon to achieve 42 K.PH., double the permitted speed limit for such wagons.
