Information about Sr Class V Locomotive List
Below is a list of Richard Maunsell's SR Class V "Schools" locomotives. The class naming process was another product of the astute publicity department of the Southern Railway, being named after public schools firstly within the Southern catchment area, and latterly further afield. Pupils of these schools were allowed to visit "their" engine during the naming ceremonies.
1 Engine 923 was originally named Uppingham, but the name was changed following objections from the school.
Three SR Class V Locomotives are known to survive:
