    The LSWR C8 class was a class of 4-4-0 express steam locomotives designed by Dugald Drummond for the London and South Western Railway and introduced in 1898. They "were of orthodox design, very much like engines which Drummond had put on the Caledonian". They were numbered 290-299 and had 18in x 26in cylinders. They probably had a short life because little has been published about them.

    They lasted 35-40 years. Firebox too small so could be short of steam. Shortcomings remedied in the T9 so could be viewed as a step on the way to the most successful 4-4-0 of the era (?).
