Line 36: == Construction history == The Drummond K10 was designed between 1901/2, and shared the same boiler as his first 4-4-0 for the LSWR, the relatively unsuccessful C8 Class of 1897. They were originally intended as a mixed traffic version of the C8 Class, and were therefore fitted with smaller wheels for this purpose. These were powered by two Stephenson link inside cylinders, a proven combination on his previous T9 Class design. A Drummond North British-style lipped chimney and dome capped off the boiler. 40 of the class were subsequently outshopped from the LSWR's Nine Elms locomotive works. Several were equipped with a six-wheeled tender because of their intended short journey lengths, which included local stopping trains and medium-level freight haulage, whilst others had the Drummond eight-wheeled 'watercart' tender for longer trips. == Operational details ==
