LSWR G6 class : ウィキペディア英語版 | LSWR G6 class
The LSWR G6 class was an 0-6-0 tank locomotive designed by William Adams for the London and South Western Railway. == Background == The late nineteenth century was a troubled period for the LSWR due to frequent motive power shortages brought about by employing a collection of ageing locomotives in an era of increasing rail traffic. There was a need to supplement this fleet with a new class of locomotive design that could undertake the mundane task of shunting in goods yards around the LSWR network. In 1893, the LSWR tasked their Locomotive Superintendent, William Adams, to solve this requirement for additional motive power.〔Bradley, D.L. (1985).〕 A new class of yard shunters was required to supplement the railway's current stock of 0-6-0Ts, which dated from 1881 and had been constructed by Beyer, Peacock and Company.〔 Therefore, a need for a compact freight design was highlighted, with the G6 being the resultant locomotive class.〔
