	BR standard class 9F - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The British Railways Standard Class 9F 2-10-0 is a class of steam locomotives, and the last steam locomotive design built by British Railways.
		The original proposal was for a boiler from the Standard Class 7 Britannia 4-6-2 to be combined with a 2-8-2 wheel arrangement.
		The 9F was used as a proving ground for a variety of technical innovations.

	The Story of Barry scrapyard
		At first progress was limited to the replacement of those older steam designs employed on shunting and light branch duties as suitable diesel shunting locomotives and the first generation of diesel multiple units were already available for traffic, while a successful fleet of large main line engines still had to be designed and built.
		By 1958 a re-appraisal by the British Transport Commission resulted in the decision to accelerate the disposal of the steam fleet, despite the fact that many of the BR Standard Class 9F 2-10-0's had yet to be built.
		Even the freight wagons that BR intended to keep in the Modernisation Plan, had to be replaced with more efficient vehicles carrying block loads.

		This gearbox is a faithful reproduction of the reversing gearbox as fitted to most of the BR Standard classes.
		This valve has been scaled down from works drawings to produce a detailed casting of the pressure reducing valve which is fitted to all the BR Standard locos apart from the 9F which was not fitted for train heating.

		The 9F was steamed on the morning of Saturday 11th and undertook a test run run from Bishops Lydeard to Minehead coupled to 7820 Dinmore Manor.
		The 9F is the second member of this class to visit the WSR in preservation days, the first being no 92220 Evening Star which visited from the National Railway Museum from March 1989 to April 1990.
		The 82xxx class 2-6-2 tanks are the only BR Standard type known to have operated on the line in BR days.

		This bulletin concerned the testing of the Class 9F locomotive which was first placed in service late in 1953.
		Two Standard Class 9F locomotives were fully tested, both at Rugby and on the line, and a third underwent a limited series of tests on the Stationary Plant.
		The data presented was that which was regarded as typical of the class.

		In 1957 on the 13 - 15th January, trials were conducted with a BR Standard class 9F 2-10-0 no. 92045 which took out 19 wagons on the final day without difficulty.
		From 1986 onwards BR introduced newly re-furbished class 37/5s to the area and these locos then took over the principal stone duties in the area.
		Pairs of class 37s both refurbished and un-refurbished can be seen on these services being drawn from the EWS general user pools.

	Testing steam locos in the 50's
		Various testing work to investigate ways of improving the performance of steam locomotives was carried out for a number of years by the BR Regions.
		Here is a selection of pictures and diagrams of testing in the very early days of BR under the auspices of the British Transport Commission.
		More information about steam testing on BR in the 1940's and 50's can be found in the recently published and excellent book by Alan Rimmer entitled 'Testing Times at Derby'.

		Designed at Brighton, with some additional work farmed out to Derby, Doncaster and Swindon (is this an early example of "political correctness"?) the 75xxx class of 80 lightweight 4-6-0 locomotives were built at Swindon to work secondary main line traffic - both goods and passenger - on virtually any secondary route.
		Standard Class 5 introduced the previous month, was allocated to work in the Midland, Southern and Western Regions of British Railways, whilst some achieved everlasting fame by working the legendary "Pines Express" over the Somerset and Dorset Line, frequently as pilot engine to a West Country or BR Standard 9F.
		This feature, quite attractive on many locomotives, didn't sit well on the Standard 4s with their fairly tall chimney.

		Many railways have a Class 08 diesel shunter normally used for moving engines and coaches that is repainted fl and dressed up as 'Diesel' for the events.

		The railway continued on GWR and then BR hands, essentially unchanged, until 1963 when passenger services were withdrawn.
