Hello 4884, <br /> <br />Hmmm, I wonder where you got that idea. It is common knowledge in Southern England but I didn't know the word had spread. The Austerity class Q1 (flying dustbin) was the brainchild of the New Zealand engineer Oliver Bulleid and was built specifically to minimum cost and material. <br /> <br /> Oliver's sense of humour does show in the exaggerated ugliness but surprisingly this little 46 ton loco was the most powerful 0-6-0 ever built in Britain. On the other hand his Pacifics are the most attractive locomotives I have ever seen although they do have the unfortunate nickname of Spam Cans.
