Metropolitan Railway D Class

Steam and Early Locomotives

The Metropolitan Railway D Class was a group of six 2-4-0T locomotives built for the Metropolitan Railway in 1894 and 1895 by Sharp, Stewart and Company. Two were used on the Verney Junction to Aylesbury section, while the other four ran between Aylesbury and Baker Street and were fitted with condensing apparatus, which was later removed. The class began to be withdrawn in 1920 and was gone by 1923. Some locomotives were sold and others scrapped, and none was ultimately preserved.
