Wanted: An english word for "Dampfspeicherlok"

[Jan Eisold]

Hello,

I´ve got a little problem: Does anyone know an english expression for the german word "Dampfspeicherlok" ? A "Dampfspeicherlok" is some kind of loco, which is filled with steam an workes without any fire oder combustion engine. In former times, they were often found in chemical and other industries.

Greats,
Jan
