List of Awesome Types of Locomotives

Below is a list of some of my favourite kinds of locomotives and their classes, when they were built, their wheel configuration, and how fast they can go.

I discovered the Fletcher Jennings Class C, LB&SCR E2 Class, LNER Class A4, Bagnall 0-4-0ST, British Rail Class 08, BR Class 42 "Warship", Midlander 4wDM, and British Rail Class 17 because certain engines of Thomas and Friends - Skarloey, Thomas, Spencer, Bill and Ben, Diesel, 'Arry and Bert, and Splatter and Dodge, Rusty, Diesel 10, and Derek - are based on these classes.

Although I have officially grown out of Thomas and Friends, I still haven't completely abandoned it permanently. This is partly due to my interest in characters, and my interest in locomotives. The rest of the classes that are featured here I discovered in 2010 while reading through this book of locomotives. Enjoy! :D
