The **Midland Railway 1528 class** was a class of ten small [0-4-0](/source/0-4-0T)[T](/source/Side_tank) [steam locomotives](/source/Steam_locomotive) designed for [shunting](/source/Shunting_(rail)). They all remained in service until 1957, when withdrawals began, the last being withdrawn in 1966.

## Construction history

Ten were built in two batches; all at the [Midland Railway](/source/Midland_Railway)'s [Derby Works](/source/Derby_Works): the first five, Nos 1528–1533, in 1907 on Derby order number 3031, and the second five, 1534–1537, in 1921–1922, with only minor detail differences between the batches.

## Service history

They all passed to the [London, Midland and Scottish Railway](/source/London%2C_Midland_and_Scottish_Railway) at the [grouping](/source/Railways_Act_1921) in 1923, keeping their Midland Railway numbers.

After nationalisation in 1948, [British Railways](/source/British_Railways) added 40000 to their numbers to become 41528–41537.
