The Metropolitan Railway E Class . A total of 7 of these 0-4-4T steam locomotives were built between 1896 and 1901 for The Metropolitan Railway.
Number 1 is based at the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre.
No. 1 was loaned in 2013 to the London Tranport museum, so it could do l trips in steam between Olympia and Moorgate via Edgware Road over successive weekends in January 2013 to mark the 150th Anniversary of the London Underground. The early morning commutors must have got a shock when No 1 went by!
Metropolitan No1 was also at the Epping and Ongar Railway Tube 150 event.
