This was the last design that Adams prepared for the GER, although they did not enter service until his successor Massey Bromley had taken office and incorporated some modifications to the design. OverviewIn order to haul heavier trains and compete for the coal traffic into London, the GER asked William Adams to design a locomotive capable of hauling a train of 400 long tons net (700 tons gross). PrototypeTests were carried out with 265 class 4-4-0s to ensure that such trailing loads were feasible, followed by a prototype 2-6-0 number 527.[1] Number 527 was the first locomotive in Britain to use the 2-6-0 wheel arrangement, and was named Mogul after the Great Moguls of Delhi,[2] the epithet becoming the generic name for locomotives with that wheel arrangement.[1] NumberingAs was the GER's practice for locomotives built by outside contractors, the class was referred to by the number of the first locomotive,[3] subsequent locos being numbered sequentially up to 541. PerformanceThey were used on coal trains from Peterborough to London, but were found uneconomic, and so had short lives, being withdrawn between 1885 and 1887.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite web |title=The Adams Era |at=No. 527 Class 2-6-0 1878-1879 |publisher=Great Eastern Railway Society |url=http://www.gersociety.org.uk/loco/adams.htm#527c |accessdate=2008-04-29}} {{Great Eastern Railway locomotives}}2. ^1 {{cite book |last=Allen |first=Cecil J. |title=The Great Eastern Railway |edition=2nd |year=1956 |origyear=1955 |publisher=Ian Allan |location=Hampton Court |page=96 }} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.gersociety.org.uk/loco/leaflet1.htm |title=Locomotive Classifications |publisher=Great Eastern Railway Society |at=para. 5 |accessdate=21 March 2010 }} 6 : Great Eastern Railway locomotives|2-6-0 locomotives|Railway locomotives introduced in 1878|Neilson locomotives|Scrapped locomotives|Standard gauge steam locomotives of Great Britain |
