The Barry Railway Class J was a group of 2-4-2T steam locomotives built for the Barry Railway in South Wales. J. F. Hosgood designed them and they were built by both Hudswell Clarke and Sharp, Stewart and Company, entering service in 1897. Their main use was the Barry to Cardiff suburban service, and they had a reputation for always being smartly turned out. All of them were based at Barry shed. The locomotives passed to the Great Western Railway in 1922 and were all scrapped by 1930.
