Crossword Genius

Peaceful -- or perhaps loco? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pacific

I believe this is a double definition.

'peaceful' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'perhaps loco?' is the second definition.
(Pacific is a type of locomotive)

'or' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for pacific that I've seen before include "Largest ocean" , "Conciliatory - calm" , "Calm - sea" , "water" , "Non-combatant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
