This axle keeps the two train wheels moving together, both turning at the same speed when the train is moving. ... This is where the wheels' geometry comes in. To help the wheels stay on the track their shape is usually slightly conical.

They have good TE, but the fact that only one wheel produces effort and the rest just drag along works against it.
Effective TE in motion is always greater with diesel and electric.
Fun fact: max gradient that steam loco can climb is 1:37. Try figuring out where you have seen this figure :D
