Caption | Also known as "Antelope-class" because 40 of the 410 examples were named after African ungulates; these powerful machines, deliberately kept thermally and mechanically simple under the influence of chief engineer E. Thompson, were intended to bring massive unification to the extremely fragmented park of machines with the same axle arrangement (4-6-0, ten-wheel) |

Thompson thermisch und mechanisch bewusst einfach gehaltenen Maschinen, sollten eine massive Vereinheitlichung des überaus zersplitterten Parks von Maschinen gleicher Achsfolge (4-6-0, ten-wheel) bringen |
