The London and North Western Railway (LNWR) "Coal Tank" were a class of 0-6-2 Tank locomotives, designed by F.W. Webb and built at Crewe during the years of 1881–1897, they were a remarkably long-lived, 300-strong, 2F-class engines. That were primarily designed for, but not limited to, coal traffic. With a 70+ year work life, many were withdrawn by 1954, but several survived through WWII, and one is preserved to this day.
*your up at Crewe Works in the middle of 1881 looking to purchase a new engine and there you see an 0-6-2 tank engine with the number 604 painted in big bold numbers on its bunker, you decide to go up and inspect this oddball of an engine to which you are greeted by a the sound of steam flowing through it.*
