 They now turned their attention to a requirement for a more powerful branchline goods locomotive, and in 1922 produced a lighter 2-8-0 "Consolidation" locomotive with a axle load and wheelbase, able to run on even the lightest lines on the VR system.The K class is credited with working virtually every line in the VR system and hauling almost every kind of train.A total of ten were built from 1922-1923, numbered 100-109.
