The Cambrian Railways Class 89 were 0-6-0 tender locomotives introduced by Jones in 1903 for general use over the Cambrian system. The first batch of five locomotives was built by Robert Stephenson and Company, and the subsequent batches were built by Beyer, Peacock and Company, whose locomotives had cabs that extended over the full length of the footplate. At the grouping they became Great Western Railway class 15 and were reboilered from 1924 onwards with Swindon parts. The first locomotive withdrawn by the Great Western was number 888 in May 1922, the first withdrawn by British Railways went in November 1952, and the last three were withdrawn in October 1954. None are preserved.
