 Designed by Henry Fowler a total of 125 locomotives were built and numbered by the LMS from No 2300 to No 2424. When passed into British Railways ownership they were numbered from No 42300 to 42424. Whilst the LMS classified them 4P for passenger related work British Railways classified them to undertake mixed traffic by classifying them as 4MT. They were the genus for a family of ultimately more than 650 LMS and British Railways' Class 4 2-6-4T locomotives.
