Data from "Locomotives of the Bristol & Exeter Railway," The Locomotive & Railway Carriage & Wagon Review, Vol IV (March 1899), p. 35. Works numbers 2530-2539. Boiler pressure is an estimate.
These relatively small freight locomotives were completed for the B & E not quite a year before that bridge line (Bristol to Exeter, i.e.) was formally absorbed by the Great Western where they were renumbered 1366-1375.
