The Great Western Railway (GWR) 3100 Class was a class of 2-6-2T side tank steam locomotive.

History

This class of large prairie was created in 1938 when Collett rebuilt some of Churchward's 3150 Class with a view to using them as bankers, particularly from Severn Tunnel Junction shed. These engines used the standard class 4 boiler again, but pressed to Шаблон:Convert. and using smaller coupled wheels of Шаблон:Convert diameter, and Шаблон:Convert increase in cylinder diameter, nominal tractive effort rose to Шаблон:Convert. Almost impossible to pick out was a Шаблон:Convert reduction in pony truck wheel diameter to Шаблон:Convert. Only five engines were ever modified, namely 3173, 3156, 3181, 3155 and 3179 which were rebuilt as 3100 to 3104 respectively. None of these were preserved.
