    The BR Standard Class 2 2-6-0 is a class of steam locomotive, one of the British Railways Standard classes of the 1950s. They were physically the smallest of the Standard classes; 65 were built
    The design was derived from the Ivatt-designed LMS Class 2MT 2-6-0, with a reduced cab to enable it to fit into a universal loading gauge, and other standard fittings, most notably a taller chimney, others including the lack of an Ivatt dome and side plates connecting the two sections of the engine. Like the LMS predecessor the BR design had a tender cab to enhance crew protection and visibility when running tender-first. They were all attached to a BR3 type tender.

    Thank you Neil for rekindling our younger days with your fine collection. A l.ot of questions to still be answered regarding the very short lives of the Standard Classes and the introduction of untried Diesels.

    Neil,

    A few locations that can be filled in -
    84/121 77014 Guildford
    118/121 77014 Possibly Bournemouth. The angle of the platform canopy doesn't look correct for Guildford.
    119/121 77014 Hamworthy Junction

    Cheers, Neil
