Prototype information
The Collett 5700 Class Pannier Tanks were very useful branchline and light freight locomotives, and were produced in greater numbers than any other British steam locomotive except the wartime 2-8-0 8Fs. Over 800 were produced for the GWR and British Rail.Similar locomotives
Pannier tanks were used only on the GWR, so there aren't really any other comparable locomotives.
