Information
Features

The 12 J70 0-6-0T were built by the Great Eastern Railway to a design by James Holden. Classified C53, they were a more powerful version of the earlier G15 0-4-0T (LNER Y6) to cope with traffic demands on the GER's various roadside tramways and dockyards, most notably the Wisbech & Upwell and those around Yarmouth quay.

Board of Trade regulations meant that the motion had to be covered by side plates, cowcatchers were required as were speed governors and a bell.

The J70s were built in batches between 1903 and 1921 and 11 became BR property in 1948. Withdrawals started in 1949 and all had been withdrawn by the end of 1955. Sadly, none of these charismatic looking machines were saved for preservation.
