The London and North Eastern Railway Class V4 was a class of 2-6-2 steam locomotive designed bySir Nigel Gresley for mixed-traffic use. It was Gresley’s last design for the LNER before he died in 1941. The V4s had similarities in their appearance and mechanical layout to the V2 Green Arrow class. The V2s introduced some years previously were large and heavy locomotives with very limited route availability.
