The North Eastern Railway Class S2 - London and North Eastern Railway Class B15 - was a mixed-traffic 4-6-0 steam locomotive designed by Vincent Raven. The design was based on NER Class S. The first seven were built with saturated (non-superheated) boilers, however the remaining thirteen were fitted with Robinson 24-element superheaters.

The Raven Class B15 (NER Class S2) 4-6-0s. Vincent Raven became the North Eastern Railway's (NER) CME in 1910, and continued the transition to more powerful locomotives to meet the NER's immediate needs. The Class S2 (LNER B15) was Raven's first 4-6-0, and was designed for mixed traffic work unlike the NER's existing 4-6-0s (B13 and B14). The ...

After World War I, the NER experienced an increase in both freight and passenger traffic. The North Eastern Railway's express goods services were being handled by the S Class (LNER B13), S1 Class (LNER B14), and S2 Class (LNER B15) 4-6-0s, which were difficult to operate and had a high coal consumption. After superheating, all three classes ...

The North Eastern Railway Class S (LNER Class B13) was 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 former.

LNER 4-6-0 Locomotives. Originally introduced to Britain in 1894 for freight haulage, 4-6-0 locomotives ("Ten-Wheelers" in American railroad jargon) became the predominant type for express and mixed traffic duties. By 1948 4-6-0s in Britain were outnumbered only by 0-6-0s and 0-6-0Ts, and British Railways built more 4-6-0s than any other type.

2024年11月11日 · The new locomotives performed adequately, but steamed poorly when handled with crew who weren't used the B15's, a problem shared with the B13 (NER Class S). As such, they were quite unpopular with crew. All passed to the LNER by the 1923 grouping, with the first withdrawal in 1937, and the last survivor, No. 1696 (NER 820) was withdrawn in 1947.
