Highland Railway L Class

The Highland Railway L class, also known as ‘Skye Bogies’ due to their association with the Kyle of Lochalsh Line. They were essentially mixed traffic versions of the earlier ''Duke'' or F class.

Construction

Nine were built at Lochgorm Works over the period 1882 to 1901. They were never named.

Dimensions

The cylinders, valve gear and motion were common to the two classes, but they had smaller driving wheels and higher pressure boilers.
