No. 50 was a class C 4-4-0 steam locomotive that was built for the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway by Sharp Stewart & Co in 1896. 50 and its siblings were based after Samuel Waite Johnson’s 1808 class that were used on the Midland Railway to avoid the necessity for such loans. 50 and its siblings were used on passenger trains. In 1923, 50 and its remaning siblings were acquired by the LNER.
