The Hill Y4 (GER B74) 0-4-0 Shunters A.J.Hill built the first example of this class for the GER in 1913 for use at Canning Town to replace the smaller "209" ( Y5 ) saddle-tanks. This engine was particularly powerful for its size at the time.

The GER Class B74 was a class of five 0-4-0T steam locomotives designed by Alfred John Hill for the Great Eastern Railway. They all passed to the London and North Eastern Railway at the 1923 grouping and received the LNER classification Y4.

The GER Class 209 (LNER Class Y5) was a class of 0-4-0 saddle tank steam locomotives of the Great Eastern Railway. These locomotives were similar to the NBR G Class but had flat-topped, instead of round-topped, tanks. A total of eight were built – four by Neilson and Company in 1874 and four more by the GER's Stratford Works between 1897 and ...

LNER 0-4-0 'Y' Locomotives 0-4-0 Tender Locomotives. The 0-4-0 is associated with the earliest steam locomotives, but one of a pair built as late as 1868 on the North British Railway (NBR) survived to Grouping (1923). Many of the Y9 'Scottish Pugs' also ran with wooden trucks as coal tenders but these were classed as tank engines.

A powerful and compact 0-4-0 tank locomotive with outside cylinders and Walshaert's valve-gear based on the LNER Y4 (GE B74) tank locomotives built to shunt the London docks. The prototypes were the most powerful British 0-4-0 locomotives.

GER/LNER Y4, 0-4-0 Tank Loco: Image shows LNER Y4 to Doug's Design. The prototype is an outside cylinder 0-4-0 side tank with outside Walschaerts valve gear. It was designed by A.J. Hill and the first one was built in 1913 at Stratford numbered 227; it was classed B74 by the Great Eastern Railway.

Originally, all of the Y8s were fitted with a single whistle of the bell-shaped type. 560, 561, and 563 acquired the organ type during LNER ownership. 559 also had one of these whistles fitted, but after 1940. In 1942, 560 acquired the chime whistle from the Gresley A4 4469, which was destroyed during an air raid at York. By 1946, the original ...

2014年4月1日 · Joining the Quarry Hunslet and Talyllyn Merseysider, we have "Quintina", a Manning Wardle based on one used on the Furzebrook Railway. This kit uses a lightly modified Fleischmann Anna chassis, which is far superior to the Hornby 0-4-0. Details and price to follow soon. Along with that, I've also got two for OO too.
