Summary
| Description |
N31 Class 0-6-0. Although 81 were built between 1891 and 1898, they were troublesome in service, having a reputation for poor steaming, priming, and sluggishness. From 1900 reboilering of the N31s commenced with the latest pattern 160 lbs. boilers, and a total of 31 engines were so treated down to 1908, including the additional N31 No. 935, rebuilt from the compound No. 127. By the end of 1914 only 29 of the 82 engines remained. Scrapping began again in earnest from 1920, and only twelve were taken over by the LNER in 1923 as class J-14, and all were withdrawn within two years without being renumbered. This photo was taken from an old original photo we came across while helping to clear the house of a deceased friend. I have uploaded it to Flickr in the hope that it might be interesting to steam enthusiasts. |
