The entire section was made up. Steam Locomotives of the NYC lines Vol 1 and 2, by William Edison and H.L. Vale JR; lists 0-8-8-0 locomotives on the roster being built from 1913-1916 and being scrapped between 1936 and 1951. NYC 2000 was an F3a 4-6-0 renumbered as 2000 in 1900, scrapped in 1934.

- I read back through the previous edits, and individual paragraphs were challenged and removed with sources. I put this note in to document why I eliminated the entire section of the page.
- I attempted to add the references listed, but I am unfamiliar with editing source code. BMECNYC ( talk) 20:07, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
- The section was edited and re-added again by an un-signed in user. BMECNYC ( talk) 20:03, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
Should this page have a listing of the railroads that used 0-8-8-0 locomotives, similar to how steamlocomotives dot com has a chart listing the different railroads that owned each type of locomotive? BMECNYC ( talk) 20:14, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
The article lists (incorrectly in my opinion) that all 0-8-8-0s are Mallets because they are articulated. I created a discussion topic here as I want to get others opinions on how to edit the section to be consistent with the page on Mallets (there's a further discussion there as well). BMECNYC ( talk) 20:11, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- So which aren't Mallets?

- No idea. My issue is with defining articulated=Mallet. Articulated does not mean its a mallet. All Mallets are compound articulated locomotives. A simple articulated locomotive isnt a Mallet. BMECNYC ( talk) 22:13, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- The Mallet page (hyperlinked in text) contradicts the sentence on this page that contains the hyperlink.
- I am unfortunately not familiar enough with the foreign examples of 0-8-8-0 locomotives to be able to correctly structure the sentence that I believe needs editing. BMECNYC ( talk) 22:17, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
