Coal Tank 0-6-2T Locomotive Class

0-6-2T tank engine version of the Webb 17in Coal Engines, first introduced in 1881. Although intended originally for goods and shunting duties, in fact they proved very suitable for local passenger train work. Their braking power was inadequate and this further encouraged their use on passenger rather than goods traffic.
