The North Eastern Railway Class S - or London and North Eastern Railway Class B13 were a 4-6-0 type of steam locomotive designed for express passenger workings. The first example was built in 1899. They were very similar to the NER Class S1, except for the smaller wheels of the Class S. They were designed to reduced double heading on the East Coast Main Line. However, they steamed poorly, with a smaller, shallower grate than was used even by other locomotives at the time, and the 4-4-0s of the NER Class R quickly replaced them, with the 4-4-2 layout being preferred for later express passenger designs. They were withdrawn between 1928 and 1938.
