Summary

Description
English: The Midland Railway 2501 Class was a class of 2-6-0 steam locomotives built in the United States in 1899. The Midland's own Derby Works had reached their capacity, and were unable to produce additional engines at the time, and many British locomotive builders were recovering from a labor dispute over working hours, thus the railway placed an order with the Baldwin Locomotive Works for 30 engines. The engines were shipped disassembled as kits of parts, and re-assembled at Derby. Baldwin constructed similar 2-6-0's for the Great Central Railway (GCR Class 15) and Great Northern Railway (GNR Class H1) around the same time.
