The Midland Railway 990 Class was a class of 4-4-0 steam locomotive. Ten were built in 1907-1909 with simple expansion to compare with the 1000 Class compounds, with which they shared many features. Initially saturated, they were later superheated. They were withdrawn between 1925 and ... None has survived to preservation, though the first of the compounds has.
