The Z4 / J92 Crane Tanks. These long-lived tank engines were the oldest tank engines in the LNER's service, and managed to survive into BR ownership. Five engines were built by Ruston & Proctor in 1868 for the GER. Originally ordered by Johnson as simple tank engines, they were rebuilt by Bromley in 1881. These rebuilds included the addition of ...

The London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) J94 Class is a class of steam locomotive that was formed when 75 former "Austerity" 0-6-0STs were purchased by the LNER in 1946 from the War Department.

The LNER Class J92 (originally LNER Class Z4) were long-lived 0-6-0 tank locomotives and the oldest tank engines in LNER service, managing to survive right through to BR ownership. Five were designed and ordered by Samuel Johnson as simple tank locomotives and were rebuilt by Bromley in 1881, which included the addition of half cabs.

The LNER 'J' 0-6-0 Locomotives: J71 - J94. Due to the large numbers of different 0-6-0 classes, they have been split into four indexes: The 0-6-0 Tender Locomotive Classes J1 - J20, can be found here. The 0-6-0 Tender Locomotive Classes J21 - J41, can be found here. The 0-6-0 Tank & Diesel Locomotive Classes J45 - J70, can be found here

In terms of locomotive taxonomy, the LNER had a superficially simple classification system that got a bit messy under close examination. Where it has been considered prudent therefore, subclasses have been identified rather than classes in order to link to the appropriate articles.

Class J92. Class Details As Crane Tank: Weight 40 tons 8; Pressure: 140psi; Cyls: 16x22; DW: 4 ft 0; TE: 13,960 lbs. Rebuilt as crane tanks from 1883.

Most of the shunting and local goods workings on the Great North of Scotland Railway (GNSR) was performed by older tender locomotives. This changed in 1884 when Manson introduced the six Class D (LNER J90) 0-6-0T side tank locomotives. They were built by Kitson & Co, and were followed by three very similar 0-6-0Ts in 1885 (LNER J91).

The Great Northern Railway (GNR) Class J13, classified J52 by the LNER is a class of 0-6-0 ST steam locomotive intended primarily for shunting. The Class J13 were introduced in 1897 designed by Henry Ivatt based on the earlier domeless GNR Class J14 (LNER Class J53). Eighty-five J13s were built up to 1909.
