User:Tony May/LNWR Class G1

The London and North Western Railway (LNWR) Class G1 was a class of 0-8-0 steam locomotives. Superheated version of the LNWR Class G.

Engines were either built from new or rebuilt from previous classes:

Numbering is somewhat complicated. The LNWR used a numbering system based on the lowest available number, with the result the the numbers were scattered through the stock book. The LMS renumbered the engines into a more logical series, however they also then continued to rebuild engines, which retained their numbers originally assigned by the LMS.

There is something wrong with this table:

Some were rebuilt back from Class G2a to Class G1 as they passed through heavy overhaul and received lower pressure boilers.

Confused yet?
