The Schools Class or more correctly the Southern Region V Class locomotive was designed by Richard Maunsell for the Southern Railway and built by their Eastleigh works between 1930 and 1935. The overall design was drawn heavily from his previous works on the Lord Nelson Class and was further ameliorated with features and components from the LSWR/SR King Arthur type locomotives. The Schools Class was the last British locomotive to have a 4-4-0 wheel arrangement and was built primarily for express passenger duties. The Schools Class was considered to be very successful design features allowed them to operate efficiently across most SR lines, which in many areas had operating restrictions which precluded other types of express locomotives. In all forty Schools Class Locomotives were constructed and all were named after English (predominantly Southern) public schools. They continued in service until 1962 and three survive today on heritage railways.
