LMS Stanier Class 2 0-4-4T

The Stanier Class 2 0-4-4T was a class of ten light passenger tank locomotives built at Derby in 1932 for the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. Although ostensibly designed under William Stanier, they were the last new design of the Midland Railway school of engineering, because design work was largely complete when he took over as Chief Mechanical Engineer on 1 January 1932. They were a larger version of the Midland 1252 Class and reused second-hand Midland Class G6 boilers from the spare stock at Derby. They were built with stovepipe chimneys, later replaced by Stanier chimneys. Numbered 6400 to 6409 and renumbered 1900 to 1909 shortly before nationalisation, all were withdrawn in November 1959 except 41900, withdrawn in March 1962. None were preserved.
