I was thinking of doing the Flying Scotsman, Mallard and Tornado in the updated Open Rails coding and see how those three locomotives perform in the Sim. The reason I picked these three as they all have good models built of them. All three of them were designed to run at high rates of speed with lighter trains. One more aspect to put into account is they all have three cylinders as well.
While most US steam locomotives were built for power and long distances UK steam locomotives were built for speed and short distances. Of course I would be willing to build a few other steam locomotives as well if needed but lets start with the NYC 4-8-4 first.
Hence lets select models out of the list of test reports shown on this page (or others that people are able to provide). I only like to develop code against clearly defined factual information.
