L&YR Class 28
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (L&YR) Class 28 is a class of 0-6-0 steam locomotive, designed by George Hughes. It is the rebuild of Aspinall's Class 27, due to the addition of a Belpaire firebox and the extension of the footplate and front sandboxes. It is similar, but superheated.
[edit] In fiction
The Class 28 was the inspiration for James the Red Engine from Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends.
