Cambrian Railways 4-4-0 locomotives

The Cambrian Railways 4-4-0 locomotives consisted of five tender locomotive classes introduced between 1878 and 1921. Three of them were designed for the Cambrian Railways and supplied new, the fourth class was rebuilt from 4-4-0 tank locomotives, and the fifth consisted of secondhand purchases. Robert Stephenson and Company built four of the 22 locomotives of the Large Bogie Passenger class, or 61 class, in 1897 and 1898, and all five locomotives of the Large Belpaire Passenger class, or 94 class, in 1904, which were heavier and had Belpaire fireboxes. Altogether 37 4-4-0 locomotives were owned by the Cambrian, 35 of which passed to the Great Western Railway at the start of 1922. The last was withdrawn in 1933 and none were preserved.
