The
North Eastern Railway (NER) Class E, classified as Class J71 by the
London and North Eastern Railway (LNER), was a class of small
0-6-0T steam locomotive designed by
T.W. Worsdell. They had inside cylinders and
Stephenson valve gear and were the basis for the later
NER Class E1 (LNER Class J72).
Eighty-one of them passed into
British Railways ownership in 1948 and they were numbered 68230-68316 (with gaps).
- In 1890, locomotive No. 811 was hauling a freight train when it was derailed on the Redheugh Incline,
Gateshead,
County Durham.
