6100 Class
In 1931 the initially 60-strong GWR 6100 Class were introduced, with an increased boiler pressure of 225 psi (1.55 MPa). This increased the tractive effort from 24,300 to 27,340 lbf (108 to 121.6 kN).

Famous quotes containing the word class:
“A theory of the middle class: that it is not to be determined by its financial situation but rather by its relation to government. That is, one could shade down from an actual ruling or governing class to a class hopelessly out of relation to government, thinking of gov’t as beyond its control, of itself as wholly controlled by gov’t. Somewhere in between and in gradations is the group that has the sense that gov’t exists for it, and shapes its consciousness accordingly.”
—Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)
