- LNER Class D13
The LNER Class D13 was a class of
4-4-0 steamtender locomotive s designed by James Holden for theGreat Eastern Railway . They had been rebuilt fromGER Class T19 2-4-0 locomotives and were classified by the GER as T19 Rebuilt. Confusingly, the name "T19 Rebuilt" was also applied to some other T19s which had been rebuilt with larger boilers but had retained their 2-4-0 wheel arrangement. All the 2-4-0s had been withdrawn by 1920 so only the 4-4-0s passed to theLondon and North Eastern Railway . Two 4-4-0s were scrapped before the grouping but the remaining 58 passed to the LNER in 1923.Overview
They were rebuilt from sixty T19 class
2-4-0 s withboiler similar to that used on Humpty Dumpties. Thebogie s came fromMassey Bromley 0-4-4 Ts and Worsdell4-4-0 s. Most had been fitted withsuperheater s by1926 . The last survivor (8039) was withdrawn in1944 . [(RCTS 1981)]Notes
