The Indian Locomotive Class AP, for Atlantic Passenger, was a broad gauge tender steam locomotive introduced around 1907 for passenger trains on the railways of British India. It was one of the standard locomotives developed by the British Engineering Standards Association and was catalogued in the second edition of its standard in 1907. Vulcan Foundry built 28 for the East Indian Railway in 1908, the North British Locomotive Company delivered ten to the same railway in 1908 and eight more in 1909, and Kitson and Company built others for the Eastern Bengal Railway. With 6 ft 6 in driving wheels they had the largest driving wheels of any steam locomotive used in India.
