Introduced in 1936, the LNER Class V2 was based on the well-known Class A1/A3 pacific locomotives, albeit with smaller driving wheels, reduced boiler length and a unique 2-6-2 wheel arrangement. A total of 184 were built and their versatility saw them put to use on fast freights and express passenger services.
All were withdrawn in the 1960s with only one preserved example, but the class also lives in Train Simulator thanks to Just Trains’ efforts to recreate the V2 to true authentic detail.
