[40] [41] [43] After looking into a half-dozen options, GCR acquired a larger tender that was formerly paired with Soo Line 4-8-2 No. 4012. [ 37 ] [ 41 ] [ 43 ] [ b ] The new tender boosted No. 4960's water capacity from 10,000 US gallons (8,327 imp gal) to 18,000 US gallons (14,988 imp gal), and with the locomotive being converted to burn oil ...
Robinson's first passenger locomotive design for the GCR was Class 11B (LNER Class D9) 4-4-0, of which 40 were built between 1901 and 1904, the last being withdrawn by British Railways in 1950. [3] Robinson followed in 1913 with the larger Class 11E (LNER D10) "Director" Class 4-4-0 locomotive, which was used on GCR express trains from London ...

The GCR has a very extensive range of wagons and goods vans. Many are used as working vehicles on the railway for the transport of rail, ballast and equipment. Still more are used to run demonstration freight trains at the GCR's gala events illustrating a time when most goods were carried by rail. [110]
They were built in three batches and numbered 161, 165, 173 (later renumbered 512–514), 601–638, and 712–725. GCR locos had 5000 added to their original numbers when the line was absorbed by the LNER in 1923, resulting in numbers ranging between 5512 and 5725.
The process of rebuilding to class 11D was completed in January 1927, by which time the GCR had become part of the LNER, which placed all 40 in class D9.
