First introduced in 1911, it was the last of 71 built before the Grouping appeared in 1921. However, a further ten were constructed by Beyer, Peacock for the LNER in 1928, by which time they had been designated the ‘B12’ Class.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt at Stratford Works in 1913, 1516 entered traffic on GER expresses out of London’s Liverpool Street station in the November.
