The Great Western Railway Earl Class 4-4-0 steam locomotives for passenger train work. The nickname for this class was Dukedog since the locomotives were composed of former Duke Class boilers on Bulldog Class frames. The first, prototype conversion retained its Duke number and name (3265 Tre Pol and Pen), but the others took new numbers in the 32xx series and given the names of Earls. These names were removed in 1937 and re-applied to Castle Class locomotives. All these locomotives were renumbered 90xx in 1946 upon delivery of new 2251 Class engines. 9017 survives in preservation at the Bluebell Railway.

NB: In the table below, names in italics were allocated but never actually carried.
