Great Central classes |
Some of the Great Central classes are now becoming extinct: class 'B.5' No. 1686 withdrawn on 12/6 was the last to remain in traffic; built in 1904 (Beyer Peacock No. 4534) it belonged to G.C. 'Class 8' which were termed the 'Fish Engines,' with outside cylinders 19' x 26' and 6' 1' coupled wheels: originally No. 183, it was subsequently allotted L.N.E. Nos. 5183, 1308. and 1686 and B.R. 61686-but none of the class were renumbered in the 6XXXX. Another class which has become extinct is 'B.7,' once known as the 'Baby Faringdons' (G.C. class '9Q') with four cylinders 16' x 26' and 5' 8' coupled wheels: No. 61711, withdrawn 3/7/50, was built at Gorton in October 1923 as L.N.E. No. 478C (later 5478), renumbered 1391 on 25/11/46. 61391 on 29/1/49 and 61711 on 30/4/49. The withdrawal of 62307 Queen Mary on 12/6/50 left only one of the 'D.9' class in service (No. 62305, originally G.C. No. 1018, built in 1902). Later. No. 62305 was withdrawn 24/7/50. |
