Title: Incorrect naming of LBSCR "L" cl****
Post by: jamespetts on July 19, 2010, 11:06:49 pm
The LBSCR "L" Cl**** is incorrectly named as "Remembrance". In fact, this was not the name given to the cl****: they were informally termed the "Brighton Baltics", as they were tank locomotives of the Baltic wheel configuration that ran on the Brighton expresses. Since the cl**** were introduced in April 1914 (the introduction date of January 1911 in Standard is therefore also incorrect), the cl**** was built (and thus named) before the outbreak of World War I. The cl**** were built until 1922, and one of the later members of the cl**** was called "Remembrance", but that name was only ever a name applied to one individual member.

However, in the mid-1920s, the cl**** were rebuilt as 4-6-0 tender locomotives by the Southern Railway, and given the cl**** name N15X. These locomotives, not the LBSCR "L" cl**** were known as the "Remembrance" cl****. I may well make a graphic for a "Remembrance" locomotive one day to make use of the upgrading feature in Experimental, but for the time being, here is the suggested change to en.tab:

Code: [Select]
-LBSCR Cl**** L "Rememberance" 4-6-4T
+LBSCR Cl**** L "Brighton Baltic" 4-6-4T
