GWR 119 Class (tank engine) (original) (raw)

The 119 Class of the Great Western Railway consisted of a series of 11 0-6-0ST locomotives. They were numbered 119-21 and 123-30 and had originally been built in 1861 at Swindon Works as tender engines to a design of Daniel Gooch, part of the 79 Class. Their rebirth as tank engines was the result of their being renewed at Wolverhampton Works under the aegis of George Armstrong between 1878 and 1883.
