Category:Diagonal steam engines
Steam engines with sloping, upward-pointing cylinders. These were usually used as a means of driving a paddle wheel shaft, whilst keeping a low centre of gravity. Some used paired cylinders as Brunel's "triangle" engine. A few examples were land-based, most were marine.
