The No.2 Special Locos

Configuration

While the other No.2 Special locos (and No 3 locos) had a tubular body and squarish firebox, the LNER "2S" versions had a fully cylindrical body right up to the cab.

The original loco

201 The Bramham Moor is listed as having been built in 1932, so even though it was assigned a smaller number than 234 Yorkshire, it was a significantly later loco in the class (Yorkshire was the first of the class, in 1927)
