The Liberation Class was a class of 2-8-0 steam locomotives designed for heavy freight work in post-Second World War Europe. 120 were built by the Vulcan Foundry of Newton-le-Willows in 1946.

Design

They shared some features{{Citation needed|date=March 2015}} with the earlier WD Austerity 2-8-0 and WD Austerity 2-10-0 which in turn had been based on the LMS Stanier Class 8F. They were however built to the continental loading gauge, but the design was intended to last, not a short-term kriegslok.

Distribution

Ten went to Luxembourg and the rest to Eastern Europe. The United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration distributed them as follows:

  • 10 to as Luxembourg as CFL class 47
  • 65 to Yugoslavia as JŽ class 38; Đuro Đaković built 10 more 1957–1958
  • 30 to Poland as PKP class Tr202
  • 15 Czechoslovakia as ČSD class 459.0

Preservation

One liberation class locomotive remains in Krakow, Poland TR202-19 built in 1946.[1]

A second (also not in working condition) is in Jaworzyna Slask, Lower Silesia, South West Poland Tr202-28. [2]
