The LSWR G16 class is a steam tank locomotive class of 4-8-0T wheel arrangement. It was designed by Robert Urie and introduced in 1921 specifically for heavy shunting over humps at Feltham marshalling yard on the London and South Western Railway (LSWR). They were based upon Urie’s previous S15 class freight design and apart from several periods of operating elsewhere on the LSWR and Southern railway network they remained at Feltham for most of their operational careers.
