  1. I'm surprised how few UK locomotives have the word 'fox' in their names...

      A while ago, I found a document with the names of all UK named locomotives.  It's kinda useful, so I spreadsheeted it and have made a few tidyups.  Link below, and my doc version of it attached.

      Woefully incomplete, I'm afraid. Where's Jeanie Deans? - there seems to be only one Webb 3-cylinder compound listed, John Hick. I recommend J. Goodman, LNWR Locomotive Names (RCTS, 2002).

       

      Also missing are the two named Midland engines, 1738 Class 4-4-0 No. 1757 Beatrice and 2601 Class 4-2-2 No. 2601 Princess of Wales.

      Cardean and Eglinton (Caley)?

       

      Without seeing some of the earlier (hidden) replies I thought the definition of a fox had moved on and that Beatrice, Jeanie Deans and the The Princess of Wales were being assessed in a rather 1970s Austin Powers sort of way.
