GWR No. 1334, and sister locomotives 1335 and 1336, were 2-4-0 steam locomotives which the Great Western Railway inherited from the Midland and South Western Junction Railway [Locomotive Club of Great Britain, "Western Region Allocations", 1953] .

They were re-boilered by the GWR and all three survived into British Railways ownership in 1948. Numbers 1334 and 1335 were withdrawn in 1952 and number 1336 in 1954. None is preserved.
