Overview
Two locomotives were used on the Verney Junction-Aylesbury section. The other four ran between Aylesbury and Baker Street and were fitted with condensing apparatus, but this was later removed.[2]
Withdrawal
From 1920 the class was withdrawn. Some were sold, others scrapped. None were preserved.[1]
