New South Wales X10 class locomotive

The X10 class is a class of steam locomotives previously operated by the New South Wales Government Railways of Australia.

History

When the NSWGR steam locomotive classification was renumbered in 1924, a number of smaller classes, including small 0-4-0 and 2-4-0 tank locomotives, all types of duplicates, yard and depot locomotives, crane locomotives, locomotive and accident cranes and special equipment were classified as the X10 class. Many were purchased from other government agencies and private lines. As such, this was an extremely diverse group of locomotives.

Included were the 18 members of the F.351 class and eight members of M.36 class.
