Caption | Based on the 192-unit design by Sir Henry Fowler, built 1911-1922, the L. M. S. continued to build this type in a slightly modified form (1924-1940), until 772 similar units were assembled, mainly for light freight service: the highest number of any locomotive type in GB; first withdrawals from service only around 1959/60, numerous units remained in service until the end of steam operation in GB around 1967/68. |
