Ernest Ahrons noted that the purpose of the 0-6-2 T design was to provide additional coal and water compared to a 0-6-0 T. He dismisses the idea the design improves the curving properties of the locomotive, said this only applies when running bunker first.

In 1904, they approached Kitson and Company in Leeds, West Yorkshire, and they bought their first 0-6-2 tank locomotive, which was No.29. 0-6-2 tank locomotives were previously introduced and proven their worth in hauling coal loads. With a tractive force of 23,500 pounds, as well as a boiler pressure of 165 pounds per square inch, the LCR ...
