Class A1 Stroudley 'Terrier' 0-6-0T, FENCHURCH
Stroudley's famous Terriers (known in earlier years as Rooters) were a light-weight design, intended to give rapid acceleration on suburban trains of light-weight carriages on the South London line, where the stations were only about a mile appart. They were such an improvement over the previous locomotives used that the initial 6 built in 1872 were soon multiplied to a class of 50.
