High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The North Eastern Railway (NER) Bogie Tank Passenger (BTP) locomotives were designed by Edward Fletcher in 1873. The locomotives were for hauling passenger services on branch lines. They had an 0-4-4 wheel layout and were later designated as G6. A total of 124 G6s were built. With the introduction of the NER Class O (LNER G5), G6 locomotives started to become redundant. Fifty of the redundant G6s were rebuilt between 1899 and 1908 as NER 290 Class (later LNER J77) 0-6-0T locomotives. In 1903, locomotive No. 957 was rebuilt as a 2-2-4T (later designated LNER X2) specifically for hauling an officer's saloon. Many class BTPs gained a further lease of life in the early 1900's by being converted to work the 'Steam Autocars' then being introduced.
