Bristol and Exeter Railway 0-4-0T locomotives


The Bristol and Exeter Railway 0-4-0T locomotives were two small 0-4-0T locomotives built for shunting by the Bristol and Exeter Railway. On 1 January 1876 the Bristol and Exeter Railway was amalgamated with the Great Western Railway, after which the locomotives were given new numbers.
These were the smallest locomotives built for the Bristol and Exeter Railway, a railway that made great use of tank locomotives, but they were dwarfed by the Pearson singles used on the main line.
These 0-4-0Ts were unique among the railway's broad gauge locomotives in having outside cylinders.
