GWR 1901 Class

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The GWR 1901 Class was a class of 0-6-0 saddle tank steam locomotives. They were designed by William Dean and George Armstrong and built at the Wolverhampton railway works, England, of the Great Western Railway between 1881 and 1895.

They were later rebuilt as pannier tanks and, in this form, 44 of them survived into British Railways ownership. Their BR numbers were 992 and 1903-2019 (with gaps).
