Designed by George Jackson Churchward, the class provided an ideal balance of speed, power, and efficiency, allowing them to work a wide variety of services across the GWR network.
Locomotive No. 4321 carries the distinctive lined green livery with the Great Western crest, reflecting the pride and prestige associated with the railway during its later years. These locomotives became a familiar sight throughout Wales, the West Country, and western England, earning a reputation for reliability and versatility.
