The L class were dainty and attractive little locomotives, often with double-bossed wheels and a variety of bolt-on options the purchaser could add. The resulting engines were unmistakably Manning Wardle.
The L class was a loco that was favoured by civil engineering contractors and also worked on several light railways, with two versions surviving into preservation.
