The LCDR R1 class was a class of 0-4-4T locomotives on the South Eastern and Chatham Railway, based on an existing London, Chatham and Dover Railway design. When more 0-4-4T engines were needed soon after the railway was formed in 1899, the company chose to order more of the LCDR R class design with modifications until its own standard designs were ready. Fifteen were built by Sharp, Stewart and Company in 1900 as SECR numbers 696 to 710, ten for the former LCDR routes and five for the old South Eastern system, and they were separated from the R class in January 1901. Harry Wainwright's later H class owed much to them. Two were withdrawn in 1929 and the rest between 1949 and 1956.
