I likes Garratts ...
K1 [now on the Welsh Highland Railway] was the first, and is a particular favourite of mine. Now running with some parts from K2.
There's another, standard gauge, "industrial" example at Bressingham.
GrahamH club has replied to StoneRoad2013 clubI also think they are a smart design to get more power in one loco. There are more photos of this type among my older photos. As seen here I have many more to scan and show now I am retired.
Many railways in Australia used garratts. This website shows something of the preserved ones.

This search in Yahoo (NOT google!) has an image section with a range of photos of garratts used in Australia. Paste into browser address space.

StoneRoad2013 club has replied to GrahamH clubI agree, about getting more power within the wheelbase ... I'm impressed by most of the articulated locomotive designs, so I have a soft spot for Fairlies and Mallets as well.
The SAR Garratts on the WHR are massive in comparison to the Double Fairlies.
Although I had a good laugh a few years ago.
There is a steep and winding climb out of Beddgelert on the WHR, on the way to Rydd Ddu. This featured in a "King of the Hill" competition, various pairings and individual engines tried their wheels ... all weights etc carefully standardised to calculate the drawbar power. Most people expected one or other of the SAR Garratts to carry off the crown. The turn-up for the books was that "Penrhyn Ladies" [Hunslets "Blanche" & "Linda"] were the winners ...
