minus the throw of eventual inside cranks; at the same time there was a reluctance to make the coupling rods too long due to concerns about material resistance, for a broken coupling rod could impact the locomotive or anything by the track. One way to resolve this was to eliminate the coupling rods and to have two independent pairs of driving wheels each pair driven by its own cylinders.

In the case of Drummond, the main motive appears to have been to obtain maximum grate area in a period where low-pitched boilers were the norm and the firebox had to be set low between the frames. This limited the width of the grate whilst its length depended on the distance between the coupled axles

in France who initially combined divided drive and independent driving axles, finally opting solely for the former whilst coupling the driving wheels. The aforementioned engineers' locomotives were compounds, and the layout was also a way of separating high-pressure from low-pressure drive trains.

Throughout locomotive history, this type of layout with independent uncoupled trains of driving wheels mounted on a common rigid chassis has been repeatedly tried with various aims in mind (the best-known more recent example is the

so that the principal benefit sought would be the increased grate area. Compared with Drummond's standard boilers, the T7's barrel length was increased by 1 ft 6 in (0.46 m) to 12 ft (3.7 m).

In 1905, number 720 was rebuilt with a larger boiler with the diameter increased by 5.25 in (0.133 m) to 4 ft 10.75 in (1.4923 m). The E10s were not rebuilt.
