Bassett-Lowke BL99031C BR 0-6-0 Class J42 No. 64816

Designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, the J39 was introduced in 1926. It became the new LNER group standard 0-6-0 goods locomotive and over 15 years a total of 289 were produced.

In 1948, following the nationalisation of the railways, all the J39s passed into British Railways ownership.

They continued in service until 1959 when a fairly rapid programme of withdrawal commenced and by the end of 1962 the entire production had ceased operations.

None have survived into preservation.
