Parker & Pollitt GCR Loco designs
Posted: Fri Feb 18, 2022 11:21 am
I have added a new collection of photos featuring Parker J10 (GCR Classes 9D & 9H) 0-6-0 (developed further by Pollitt
The Manchester Sheffield & Lincolnshire Railway's (MS&LR, later GCR) Class 9D locomotives were a development of Parker's existing Class 9B (LNER J9) engines. The two classes were identical except for the substitution of Joy valve gear for Stephenson valve gear. The 9D engines were Parker's first goods locomotives to use Stephenson valve gear.
