Is it a Shay or a Garratt? These sometimes come in sections that have to be assembled on the track in Surveyor.
Just a hint. When you ask a question, provide every bit of information that you can, a single one-liner like yours provides no information and will mean more posts to get the necessary information from you.

This worked well, the PBR G42 is one of my Garratts and my favourite.
The loco comes in three parts, front tank, boiler, and rear tender.
I assume that you have installed them from the CDP file. They will show up in the menu with a name starting with '30'. You can't assemble them in Railyard, only in Surveyor
Select the front tank and place it on the track. Select the boiler unit and left click on the track behind the front tank, if the smoke stack is the wrong end rotate it, and finally place the rear tender behind it. The tender may be reversed so you may have to rotate it. You should now have a working locomotive.
If I have made some assumptions here that you don't understand please tell me.

When I built the Garratt, I could not get a sound that I considered to be worth listening to so the 'Enginesound' file that comes with the loco is a silent one. I am told that the sound for the QR Garratt works quite well but I have not tried it.
The sound file is KUID:62909:15 and is on the DLS. Try it. Replace the kuid after the 'enginesound' tag in the 'config.txt'

I get my pleasure from making the models. I started with Trainz when it was presented as a Model Railroad Simulator and I still regard it as such. Because of this, engine sound has never been important to me, and althought I will try to get the best sound that is available when I make the model, I never bother with it after that.
I must also admit that I very seldom run any of my models, I do not make any routes to run them and when I do run them the PC sound is always turned off.
