The GER Class T19 was a class of 2-4-0 steam tender locomotives designed by James Holden for the Great Eastern Railway. Some were later rebuilt with larger boilers while others were rebuilt with both larger boilers and a 4-4-0 wheel arrangement. Unusually, both the 2-4-0 and 4-4-0 rebuilds were classified as GER Class T19 Rebuilt. All the 2-4-0s had been withdrawn by 1920 so only the 4-4-0s passed to the London and North Eastern Railway in 1923 and these became the LNER Class D13.
Overview
The T19s was similar to the Worsdell G14, but had a slightly larger boiler. 110 locomotives were constructed. They had 18 x 24in cylinders and the last ten had 160psi boilers, but the remainder were gradually fitted with two-ring boilers. No. 758 was fitted with an extended smokebox in 1900. Oil burning apparatus was fitted to No. 712 and 759-767. No. 760 was named Petrolea.
Water scoops
Tenders with water scoops were fitted to Nos 762-7 and 1030-9 to enable the Cromer expresses to run non-stop from Liverpool Street to North Walsham from 1 July 1897. Water troughs were installed at Halifax Junction, Ipswich and at Tivetshall St. Mary.
Royal trains
No. 755 hauled the funeral train for the Duke of Clarence from King's Lynn to Windsor on 28 January 1892. No. 761 hauled the honeymoon train for the Duke and Duchess of York from Liverpool Street to King's Lynn on 6 July 1893. In spite of all this Royal patronage 29 were scrapped between 1908 and 1913.
Post-GER
Although none of the 2-4-0s survived into LNER ownership, some in their rebuilt as 4-4-0 form did and this provided the authors of (RCTS 1981) with an excuse to disentangle the complex variations within the 110 locomotives as built. See also (Ahrons 1951). Two 4-4-0s were scrapped before the grouping but the remaining 58 passed to the LNER in 1923. Most had been fitted with superheaters by 1926. The last survivor (8039) was withdrawn in 1944.<ref>(RCTS 1981)</reference>
