    Collection of photos featuring the BR Standard 4 2-6-0

    The BR Standard Class 4 2-6-0 is a class of steam locomotive designed by Robert Riddles for British Railways. 115 locomotives were built.
    The class was designed at the ex-LNER works at Doncaster which was also responsible for building 25 of the 115-strong class. The remaining 90 were split between Horwich and Derby Works.
    The last in the series, No.76114, was also the final steam engine to be constructed at the 'Plant' (as Doncaster works was known). The Standard Four Mogul was essentially a standardised version of the LMS Ivatt Class 4, and was primarily intended for freight use.
