10 driving wheels with a diameter of , she had a tractive effort of . She, the LMS Garratts, and, later, LNER's class U1 Garratt were the only locomotives not given a power classification by either the LMS or BR, either because the bankers were designed specifically for the job of providing extra power at slow speeds and were not suitable for normal train working, or because their starting tractive effort fell well outside the system and it was not worth extending it for so few machines. Withdrawal The engine was withdrawn on 19 May 1956 and scrapped by Derby Works in September 1957, having covered , mostly on the Lickey. BR Standard Class 9F number 92079 took over, acquiring Big Bertha's electric headlight for the duty. The other banking turns on the Lickey were operated by Midland Railway 2441 Class, LMS Fowler Class 3F 0-6-0Ts, and GWR 9400 Class pannier tanks often in pairs, operation being controlled by a complicated system of whistle codes. See also The LNER Class U1 Beyer-Garratt banker from the Woodhead Route was tried unsuccessfully on the Lickey in the mid-1950s. Several GWR 9400 Class pannier tank engines were used for banking after the Lickey Incline came under the control of the Western Region along with BR Standard Class 9F number 92230.
