Some aspects I feel are currently missing from this article:

A better sense of historical perspective in some aspects
Comparison to similar locomotives elsewhere
More detailed information on design aspects
Photographs of the locomotives in service
Assessments and opinions by employees who worked on or with the class
More accurate information on service life, trains hauled, etc.
Last runs, last survivors
More information on preserved #460

and probably much more Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 22:38, 26 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
