G&SWR 46 Class
# G&SWR 46 Class

The Glasgow and South Western Railway (GSWR) 46 class is a class of six 0-6-0 steam locomotives designed in 1862. They were Patrick Stirling’s second 0-6-0 design for the railway.

## Development

The six examples of this class were designed by Patrick Stirling for the GSWR and were built by Kilmarnock Locomotive Works (Works Nos. R4-R9) in 1864. They were numbered 46–51. The members of the class were fitted with domeless boilers and safety valves over the firebox, and weatherboards rather than cabs.

## Withdrawal

The locomotives were withdrawn between 1888 and 1893.
