Two of these engines were built by Wheatley for use by the North British Railway (NBR) for short distance goods and mineral traffic. They were last mainline 0-4-0 locomotives to be built in Britain. Both were rebuilt by Holmes in 1902, and Reid in 1911. No. 1010 (originally No. 357) was withdrawn in April 1921, but 1011 (originally No. 358) survived into LNER ownership and was withdrawn in December 1925. Originally these engines were allocated to the Fife and Northern Districts. Later, they were shedded at Kipps. During LNER ownership, No. 1011 was the usual engine used on the branch from Clarkston to Springbank Yard and Moffat Mills. It proved useful on this sharply curving line.
