The New Huber is the only steam traction engine I have seen with a return flue boiler.
I had the opportunity to drive it at one of the shows at this farm.

The only way you can see where your front wheels are pointing and rolling is by leaning your head well to the right of the steering wheel right over the right drive wheel. There is a very small field of view over the drive wheel and under the flywheel. (not a great design) Otherwise there is a lot of boiler, engine and smokestack in your face.
