The Furness Railway 120 class, classified K1 by Bob Rush and nicknamed the Seagulls, was a class of four 4-4-0 steam locomotives designed by W. F. Pettigrew and built by Sharp, Stewart and Company of Glasgow for the Furness Railway in 1890. They were the first of two groups of Seagull engines that the railway ordered from the same builder, the larger 21 class, known as the K2 or Larger Seagulls, following in 1896 and 1900 to take over the heavier and more important trains. All four of the 120 class passed to the London, Midland and Scottish Railway at the grouping of 1923 and were withdrawn between 1924 and 1927.
