The Highland Railway E Class was a class of 4-4-0 steam locomotive designed by David Jones for passenger service. They were also known as the 'Clyde Bogies' as they were built by the Clyde Locomotive Works in Glasgow, Scotland. They were the first locomotives built by that company.

Built in 1886, they were a development of Jones' previous F Class.

The boiler pressure was 160 lbf/in² (1.1 MPa) the cylinders were 17 inches by 24 inches (432 by 610 mm); driving wheel diameter was 6 feet 3 inches (1.9 m).

There were eight locomotives of this class:

All passed to the LMS in 1923, but only no. 82 survived long enough to carry its new number (14278).

No 79 was withdrawn early in 1924 and stored at Aviemore until called for breaking up.
