The GER Class P43 was a class of ten 4-2-2 steam tender locomotives designed by James Holden for the Great Eastern Railway. They were the last 'singles' built for the Great Eastern, and the last in service.

History

Constructed with oil-burning apparatus to speed the elite from the City of London to Cromer, West Runton & Sheringham{{sfn|Rous-Marten|1902|p=272}} and capable of reaching North Walsham non-stop in just over two and a half hours.[1] They had {{convert|18|x|26|in|mm|0|adj=on}} inside cylinders and {{convert|7|ft|0|in|m|3|adj=on}} driving wheels.[2]

Only a single batch of ten was built, all on order P43 in 1898, numbered 10 to 19. They had a short working life, as they were incapable of handing increasing heavy trains. They were withdrawn between 1907 and 1910.
