GNRI Class S : ウィキペディア英語版 | GNRI Class S
The Great Northern Railway (Ireland) class S was a class of five 4-4-0 steam locomotive that the Great Northern Railway introduced in 1913 to haul Belfast – Dublin express passenger trains. They were followed two years later by the three similar class S2 locomotives. All were built by Beyer, Peacock and Company at their Gorton Foundry, Manchester. ==Names== The locomotives were delivered during a time when the GNRI was removing names from locomotives. The S class locomotives carried names from new, but gradually lost them, so by 1925, only 170 ''Errigal'' retained its name. This it lost in 1930. The S2 locomotives were allocated the names ''Lugnaquilla'', ''Carlingford'', and ''Mount Hamilton'', but they were never carried. With the introduction the class V locomotives in 1932, the GNRI revived the practice of naming locomotives; the S2 class acquired new names, and the S class regained their old ones as they went though the works for rebuilding in the late 1930s. All were named after mountains in Ireland.
