Caledonian Railway Class 262

The Caledonian Railway 262 Class was a 0-4-2 saddle tank designed by Dugald Drummond in 1885. There were only two locomotives built & they were intended for the Killin Branch on the Callander & Oban line. They would be numbered 262 and 263 under Caledonian ownership. 
==History==
They acquired the nicknames “Killin Pugs”, as they were essentially a 0-4-2 saddle tank version of the already successful CR 264 Class “Pugs” but with a rear pony to support an added bunker.
However, fate would have it that they were soon too under powered for the line & had too little fuel capacity. They were allocated to shunting duties like their 264 counterparts after being replaced with CR 171 Class Tanks. Upon grouping in 1923, both were absorbed into the LMS, being renumbered 15000 and 15001 respectively. They were eventually moved to Inverness depot for shunting duties where they did so for the remainder of their working lives, with both engines eventually being withdawn in 1947.
