Sir William Stanier's London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) 2-Cylinder 2-6-4T is a class of 206 steam locomotive built between 1935 and 1943. They were based on his LMS 3-Cylinder 2-6-4T.
The LMS numbered them 2425-94, and then 2537-672, BR adding 40000 to their numbers to make them 42425-94, and then 42537-672. The LMS classified them 4P, BR 4MT. They were the basis for the LMS Fairburn 2-6-4T.
The first withdrawal was in 1960, with the last in 1967. Not one has been preserved.
Models
Hornby Model Railways has released Stanier's 4MT as a 00 Gauge ready-to-run model. Two versions are to be released; one in LMS Black, the other in BR Black (early and late).
