Details

The LMS Stanier Class 8F 2-8-0 was introduced in 1935, designed by William Stanier as a heavy freight locomotive. A total of 852 were built by 1945, including many constructed during the Second World War when Robert Riddles, seconded to the Ministry of Supply, selected the 8F as Britain’s standard wartime steam locomotive. Over 200 were shipped overseas, particularly to the Middle East, with many remaining abroad after the conflict. At Nationalisation in 1948, British Railways inherited 624 examples, the fleet peaking at 666. Withdrawals began in 1960, with the last working in 1968. Fourteen locomotives survive in preservation worldwide.
