Designed in 1884 by the Xernlanian Corporation "Dampvil & Co.", it was produced as a heavy duty "Traction Engine" Wikipedia on Traction Engines: "A traction engine is a steam-powered tractor used to move heavy loads on roads, plough ground or to provide power at a chosen location. The name derives from the Latin tractus, meaning 'drawn', since the prime function of any traction engine is to draw a load behind it. They are sometimes called road locomotives to distinguish them from railway locomotives – that is, steam engines that run on rails." It would see production from 1885 to 1901 with the advent of gasoline-powered vehicles becoming more prevalent across Spiritus, it was still used throughout the Army of Xernlania and other countries such as Enojo and Verita (a dozen were also used by the Isles of Lyn for functioning as Road Trains) in 1891, it was first commisoned by the X.A.F (Xernlanian Armed Forces) for testing, and was seemed fit enough for service under border patrol forces for hauling supplies, artillery, and men, sometimes doing all at the same time.
