The LNER Class J64 was a class of three 0-6-0T steam locomotives of the London and North Eastern Railway.[1]

They were built by Hudswell Clarke for the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway and were acquired by the LNER when it took over the Mid-Suffolk in 1924. Number 3 was withdrawn immediately and never received an LNER number. Nos. 1 and 2 were renumbered as LNER 8316 and 8317 respectively.

Dimensions

[edit]

The dimensions for Nos. 1 and 2 are shown in the infobox (right). Dimensions for No. 3 are not known but it is believed to have been similar to No. 1, except that the cylinder bore was 14 inches (356 mm).

Withdrawal

[edit]

Withdrawal dates were:

  • No.1 (LNER 8316) January 1928
  • No.2 (LNER 8317) December 1929
  • No.3 (no LNER number) August 1924

None of the locomotives are preserved.

One thought on “Cannabaceae”

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
