The Midland Railway Class 3 4-4-0 was a series of 80 steam engines built by the Midland railway at the Derby locomotive works between 1900 and 1905.They were designed for express passenger trains earlier types not being powerful enough for the new heavier trains. They were the first of that railway’s engines to be built new with Belpaire fireboxes and the engines were generally known as Belpaires.There were only minor differences between the four groups.
