The GER Class C32 was a class of fifty 2-4-2 T steam locomotives designed by James Holden and built by the company's Stratford Works between 1892 and 1902. They all passed to the London and North Eastern Railway at the 1923 grouping and received the classification F3.

The Holden F3 (GER Class C32) 2-4-2T Locomotives. James Holden used a standard 4ft 4in boiler design with a sloping grate on his J14, J15, and E4 designs. When a locomotive for longer distance fast stopping trains was required, Holden adapted the E4 design into the F3 2-4-2T tank engine design. A total of fifty locomotives in five batches of ...

The H&BR Class F3 (LNER Class N13) was a class of 0-6-2T steam locomotives of the Hull and Barnsley Railway. [1] [2] They were designed by Matthew Stirling to work goods trains to and from the King George Dock at Hull which opened in 1914. They were not fitted with vacuum brakes so they were not suitable for passenger work.

The LNER class F5 engines were rebuilt from 1911 onwards from F4 class locomotives built at Stratford between 1903 and 1909. These engines had higher pressure boilers and as with the class F3 tanks there was a lot of variation in the boiler mountings (chimneys, domes and …

Teething problems solved, the C32 class 2-4-2Ts settled down to an uneventful life. Under the LNER they became class F-3, by which time they were beginning to spread further afield on the GE system and they were not often to be seen in the London area after around 1927.

The F3 was virtually a tank engine equivalent of the E4 class 2-4-0 tender loco and was intended principally for use on longer distance fast stopping trains. Originally used for working services out of London Liverpool Street. After 1913 most were transferred out of …

The LNER 2-4-2 Locomotives. The 2-4-2T was adopted by many companies for local passenger work (and in at least one case for semi-fast duties). The LNER inherited 341 at Grouping (1923), and did not build any of its own. Due to the large numbers inherited from the Great Eastern Railway (GER), they outnumbered all other four-coupled tank designs.
