There were several more geared steam locomotives of varied designs and sizes produced. With a few exceptions, most were produced in small numbers. They were typically made by small companies or concerns in an attempt to fill a specific niche of the demand for geared steam locomotives. Some are one of a kind units being assembled, built, or cobbled together by the locomotive's owner or their employees.
