The ''Patentee'' locomotive was a revolutionary 2-2-2 steam locomotive type introduced by Robert Stephenson and Company in 1833, as an enlargement of their 2-2-0 ''Planet'' type. The wheel arrangement of two leading wheels on one axle, two powered driving wheels on one axle, and two trailing wheels on one axle provided more stability and enabled a larger firebox than the earlier 0-2-2 and 2-2-0 types.〔Hamilton Ellis, ''The pictorial encyclopaedia of railways,'' Hamlyn, 1968, p.37.〕 One of the earliest examples, ''Adler'', the first successful locomotive to operate in Germany, was a ''Patentee'' supplied by Robert Stephenson and Company in component form in December 1835. Other examples were exported to the Netherlands (notably ''Arend'' in 1839), Russia and Italy.〔Ellis, ''The pictorial encyclopaedia of railways,'' p.37.〕 Another, ''Le Belge'', was the first steam railway locomotive built in Belgium, constructed in 1835 by John Cockerill under license from Stephenson's company. By 1838 the type had become the standard passenger design by Robert Stephenson and Company.〔Science Museum, The British Railway Locomotive 1803-1853, H.M.S.O, 1958, p.13.〕 == References ==
