The Manor class 4-6-0s were introduced for lightly laid lines and so were popular on the Cambrian Coast Express as well as the Newcastle–Swansea port-to-port express. Although only 30 were ever built almost one third of the class has survived in preservation, such is the fondness felt by enthusiasts.
