Discussion copied from my talk page:

Hi, re Caledonian Railway 0F Class: this is an anomaly, because the Caledonian didn't use LMS-style power classifications. These 0-4-0ST should really be at Caledonian Railway 264 Class, that being the classification found in several books by e.g. Baxter, Haresnape and others. Generally speaking, CR classifications were the number of the first loco built to that design. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:49, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

I think you are right but I am confused because it is also called Caledonian Railway 611 Class. Can you explain this please? Biscuittin (talk) 17:03, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

The 264 Class were the 20 engines ordered by Drummond, whilst the 611 Class were the 14 ordered by McIntosh. I know of no actual difference between the two series. I've added a construction table to the article. --Redrose64 (talk) 17:45, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Thank you, that's much clearer. If you want to re-name the article, that is fine with me. Biscuittin (talk) 17:48, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
