Development

Peter Robertson, the locomotive superintendent of the Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock and Ayr Railway since 1840,remained in post following the merger of this railway with the Glasgow, Dumfries and Carlisle Railway to form the Glasgow and South Western Railway in 1850 until his resignation in 1853.. He ordered ten 0-4-0 locomotives with domeless boilers from R and W Hawthorn which were produced between August 1852 and December 1853. They were numbered 86-95, but the last two were renumbered 5 and 6 in 1854.[1]

Withdrawal

The class were withdrawn by James Stirling during 1872 and 1873.

gollark: I mean, "list of AI" is probably easy enough, you could just... search github using some keywords, and maybe research papers.
gollark: Just because you can describe a task in a sentence or so doesn't mean you can give a description clear and detailed enough to think about programming it.
gollark: Early attempts at AI back in the last millennium tried to create AIs by giving them logical reasoning abilities and a large set of facts. This didn't really work; they did some things, hit the limits of the facts they had, and didn't do anything very interesting.
gollark: They don't even have *memory* - you just train the model a bunch, keep that around, feed it data, and then get the results; next time you want data out, you use the original model from the training phase.
gollark: They don't really have goals, only the training code does, and that goal is something like "maximize prediction accuracy with respect to the data".
