  1. This might sound a bit rude, but may I use this class for a project I'm working on?
  2. From my own adolescent mind. LNER EE2: A 1-Bo+Bo-1 Electric for expresses in the North East. Built in 1947 by A.H. Peppercorn as a replacement for the EE1, which didn't really have a working career SR Y class: Mansuell 4-8-0 for heavy(ier) freight than the S15s could cope with. As there little heavy freights, only 3 were built. BR class 79: 1986 Electric design for freight use on BR(S) Higher horsepower than the 73s at 1,900 hp, but were electric only and thus couldn't stray from the Southern.
  3. Uhh...the A4s had higher boiler pressure than the A3s, didn't they? Personally, I'd think a de-streamlined A4 would probably be an A9. New classification since you're removing an important part of the design, unlike the Coronations.
  4. Given its design, I want to say a Mallet. I would say a Fairly, but not all of them were double-ended. So yeah, Leader's a Mallet.
  5. 1. If the LMS had purchased the Castles, They probably would've had a similar destiny as the Royal Scots did. Even though he came from the GWR, Stanier would probably modernize the Castle design, but maybe keep the four cylinders. Not too sure about the Patriots and Black 5s. The former would probably just be Castles with three cylinders instead of four, and a slightly smaller boiler. 2. Don't think making the Kings a Pacific would've done them much good. Their route availability is slim enough as it is, and building them as Pacifics would probably put them in the same position as The Great Bear. Actually, didn't Hawksworth propose a Pacific? The Cathedrals maybe? Or the Queens?
