The Great Northern Railway (GNR) Class L1 (LNER Class R1) was a 0-8-2T side tank steam locomotive designed by Henry Ivatt. It was originally designed for suburban passenger traffic on the Metropolitan City Lines.A prototype was built in 1903 but it was overweight so it was rebuilt with a smaller boiler and shorter side tanks. Ten more engines were then built to this modified design.
