disposition=All scrapped The London and North Eastern Railway Class J50 was a class of 0-6-0T steam locomotive. They had long side tanks that came to the front of the boiler, which sloped forwards to improve visibility and had a recess cut in to aid maintenance. No LNER J50s survive today.

They were composed of four subclasses:
*J50/2 were introduced in 1922, being rebuilt from the smaller GNR J51s built 1915–1922.
*J50/3 were introduced in 1926, being an LNER development.
*J50/1 were introduced in 1929, being rebuilt from the smaller GNR J51s built 1913–1914.
*J50.4 were introduced in 1937, being a development of the J30/3 with an enlarged coal bunker
