    Midland Railway 1000 Class is a class of 4-4-0 steam locomotive designed for passenger work
    These were developed from a series of five locomotives (2631–2635) introduced in 1902 by Samuel Waite Johnson, which had a 3-cylinder compound arrangement on the Smith system, with one high-pressure cylinder inside the frames and two low-pressure cylinders outside, and used Smith's starting arrangement. On the first two locomotives independent control of high-pressure and low-pressure valve gears was available. From 1905 onwards, Johnson's successor Richard Deeley built an enlarged and simplified version, eliminating all the Smith refinements and fitting his own starting arrangement, making the engines simpler to drive. These locomotives were originally numbered 1000–1029, but in the 1907 renumbering scheme the five Smith/Johnson locomotives became 1000–1004 and the Deeley compounds 1005–1034. Ten more of these were added in 1908–1909. The original Johnson locomotives were all subsequently renewed as Deeley compounds, including the now-preserved 1000 which was rebuilt and outshopped with a superheater in 1914.
    Numbered 1000–1044 by both the Midland and LMS companies, British Railways renumbered the Midland series of compounds 41000–41044 after nationalisation in 1948.
    I have added over 95 photos of the Midland Compounds including this railtour photo of

    The Midland Railway 990 class was a class of 4-4-0 steam locomotive. Designed by Richard Deeley, Ten were built by the Midland Railway in 1907–1909, with simple expansion, to compare with the 1000 class compounds, with which they shared many features. Initially built as saturated, from 1910 to 1914, they were equipped with superheated boilers. These locomotives were well known for their work North of Leeds, over the demanding Settle and Carlisle route
    On 2 September 1913, locomotive No. 993 was hauling a stalled express passenger train that was involved in a collision with another express at Ais Gill, Westmorland due to the latter passing signals at danger. Sixteen people were killed and 38 were injured
    They passed to the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) in 1923 and were withdrawn between 1925 and 1928. in 1926, the eight surviving locomotives were renumbered 801 to 809 to free-up their old numbers for more Compounds.

    I have added over 165 new photos of Henry Fowlers 4P Compound 4-4-0 locos
    One hundred and ninety five engines were built by the LMS, adding to the 45 Midland Railway 1000 Class, to which they were almost identical. The most obvious difference is that the driving wheel diameter was reduced from 7 ft 0 in (2.134 m) on the Midland locomotive to 6 ft 9 in (2.057 m) on the LMS version. They were given the power classification 4P.
    The LMS continued the Midland numbering from 1045 to 1199 and then started in the lower block of 900–939. After nationalisation in 1948, BR added 40000 to their numbers so they became 40900–40939 and 41045–41199

    The Midland Railway (MR) 3835 Class is a class of 0-6-0 steam locomotive designed for freight work. The first two were introduced in 1911 by Henry Fowler. After the grouping in 1923 they continued to be built up to 1941 by the LMS as the LMS Fowler Class 4F.
    A total of 197 engines were built. 192 of them were sequentially numbered 3835–4026 for the Midland Railway. After nationalisation in 1948 British Railways added 40000 to their numbers so they became 43835–44026. Five engines were constructed by Armstrong Whitworth for the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway in 1922, numbered 57–61. They were absorbed into LMS stock in 1930, becoming 4557–4561.
    I have added just over 40 photos of Fowlers 3835 class
    Including this photo of the now preserved
