The Great Western Railway (GWR) 6400 Class is a class of 0-6-0 pannier tank steam locomotive introduced by Charles Collett in 1932. All 40 examples were ‘auto-fitted’ – equipped with the remote-control equipment needed for working autotrains.The 1936 GWR 7400 Class was a similar class without the autotrain apparatus but with a higher boiler pressure of 180 psi providing a small but useful increase in power.
