They had outside frames for the six-coupled driving wheels but inside frames for the leading wheels. Initially, a distinctive visual feature was a large saddle-shaped sandbox over the first ring of the boiler. The class had two prototypes: No. 2601, which was a 4-6-0, while No. 2602 was a 2-6-0.

of the inside cylinders led to fractures of the solid crank axles. The class was thus short-lived, and most were withdrawn around 1906. Several of the boilers were converted for stationary use in
Swindon Works at reduced pressure and remained in service there until the 1950s.

The somewhat experimental class was not successful; the boiler's high pressure and 3 ft 6 in (1.067 m) long combustion chamber gave trouble and the long 28-inch (711 mm)
