GWR 3252 Class
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Great Western Railway Duke Class 4-4-0 steam locomotives for passenger train work. Twenty locomotives were later rebuilt as Bulldog Class locomotives. A further thirty locos were later rebuilt as Earl Class locomotives; the prototype (number 3265) was not renumbered, but the others took numbers 3200-3228.
This class were subject to the 1912 renumbering of GWR 4-4-0 locomotives, which saw the Bulldog Class gathered together in the series 3300-3455, and other types renumbered out of that series. This class took numbers 3252-3291, which had previously been used by the first batch of Duke Class locomotives. The surviving locomotives were again renumbered into the 90xx series in 1946 upon introduction of new 2251 Class locomotives, which reused the 32xx numbers.
