- William Adams’ 415 (later 0415) Class was based on his earlier LSWR 46 Class, with London suburban services in mind. The design was based on a 4-4-0 design with a trailing radial axle added to support an enlarged coal bunker. The radial axlebox worked in a corresponding curved hornblock the centre of which was struck near the middle of the chassis. Many tank engines so fitted earned the soubriquet ‘Radial Tanks’, or simply ‘Radials and the 415 Class was no exception. The enlarged coal bunker was also designed to incorporate a back tank for extra water storage in addition to the capacity of the side tanks. Coupled to a short wheelbase and guiding bogie, the locomotive was relatively manoeuvrable on tight curves, a feature that was to ensure the survival of some of the class later on.
