LMS 0F Class

The LMS Kitson 0-4-0ST or Kitson 0F was a class of 0-4-0 saddle tank steam locomotive designed for light shunting.
== History ==
Five were designed and built by Kitson & Co. of Leeds to LMS specification in 1932 and numbered 1500–1504. They were similar to other shunters built for industrial use. The manufacturer's works numbers were 5644–5648. The LMS classified them 0F. These were later renumbered 7000–7004 in 1935/1936. British Railways added 40000 to their numbers after nationalisation in 1948, becoming 47000–47004. In 1953/1954 BR constructed an additional five at Horwich Works, numbered 47005–47009. These differed from the original batch having shorter saddle tanks with extra space given to longer coal bunkers instead.
Some saw use on the Cromford and High Peak Railway in Derbyshire. Withdrawals occurred between 1963 and 1966. None were preserved.
