The Great Western Railway 1000 Class or County Class was a class of 4-6-0 steam locomotive. Thirty examples were built between 1945 and 1947, but all were withdrawn and scrapped in the early 1960s. A replica locomotive is under construction.

GWR 1009 was one of the five cabooses being used during a 1983 NRHS excursion over the Great Western. It was built in the 1920s for the Elgin, Joliet & Eastern and was acquired from the EJ&E sometime later. It would be sold to a private owner and is currently located in Pierce, CO.

These were the ultimate locomotives in the development of the GWR two-cylinder 4-6-0 express engines and were descended directly from the 2900 Saint class. They were the last GWR passenger design built before nationalisation and they were a larger version of the 6959 Modified Hall class but the boiler was based on the LMS 8F 2-8-0 design.
