The NER Class X (LNER Class T1) was a class of 4-8-0T tank locomotive designed by Wilson Worsdell for the North Eastern Railway. [1] They were intended for use as powerful shunting engines to arrange and move coal wagons for loading into ships. [1]

The LNER 4-8-2 "Mountain" Type Locomotives were proposed 4-8-2 "Mountain" type steam locomotives that was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley. The LNER Class I1 would have featured similar features from the Class A1s as well as other locomotives that Gresley had designed, such as a third cylinder on...

The LNER Class A4 is a class of streamlined 4-6-2 steam locomotives designed by Nigel Gresley for the London and North Eastern Railway in 1935. Their streamlined design gave them high-speed capability as well as making them instantly recognisable, and one of the class, 4468 Mallard, holds the record as the world's fastest steam locomotive.

The 4-8-4 wheel arrangement was a progression from the 4-8-2 Mountain type and, like the 2-8-4 Berkshire and 4-6-4 Hudson types, an example of the "Super Power" concept in steam locomotive design that made use of the larger firebox that could be supported by a four-wheel trailing truck, which allowed greater production of steam.

The Great Central Railway Class 8H (LNER Class S1) was a class of 0-8-4T steam tank locomotives designed by John G. Robinson for hump shunting at Wath marshalling yard. Four locomotives were built in 1907/1908 for the Great Central Railway. They …

The LNER Class R1 (or LNER Class R2) was a proposed 4-8-2 "Mountain" type steam locomotive that was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley. The LNER Class R1/R2 would have featured similar features from the Class A1s as well as other locomotives that Gresley had designed, including its also never-built...

2019年10月5日 · (ii) The LMS Northern looks right to an American eye. 66 inch driven wheels were smaller than those on any North American 4-8-4, but LOOK right on a locomotive sized for the British loading gauge (*).

2019年5月23日 · Both the LNER and LMS toyed with 4-8-2 and 4-8-4 designs but nothing actually materialised. Harrison is on record as saying he would have pursued 4-8-2s had he taken over from Peppercorn.

Following the LNER chief mechanical engineer Sir Nigel Gresley’s death from illness in 1941, neither Edward Thompson nor Arthur Peppercorn resumed the 4-8-2 project, and after the United...

Instead of using this design, in 1909 Wilson Worsdell designed a similar three-cylinder engine but with a 4-8-0T wheel arrangement. In other words, it had a leading 4-wheel bogie, rather than a trailing 4-wheel bogie. These engines were designated NER Class X, and became LNER Class T1 after Grouping.
