I am no expert in these matters, I'm in fact a complete novice.
That's why I take my cue from Steamscenes where DC calls it a 'tractor'. I think the same is true for quite a few similar Foden products However, I also see now that the TER classes it as a W(agon), so I guess it will have to move...
I have always lumped tractors, traction/general engines and road locomotives under the category of 'General' because while some engines clearly belong in one of these sub-divisions, it's less clear cut to me at least in some cases.
