Description
Here's something I rarely do, make bases in the style of someone else and in this case: Midnight Express (tsDra90n ). For this, I've done the Great Western Railway's proposed 2-10-2T designed in 1937 but never built. According to many sources regarding this design, dubbed the "8200" by a few, these engines were going to be built to handle heavy iron ore trains from Newport Docks to Ebbw Vale that the existing 2-8-0T 4200 and 5205 classes and the 2-8-2T 7200 class couldn't handle while also tied up with their Welsh coal duties. This was the UK's second attempt at getting a 2-10-2 "Santa-Fe" type after the GCR's attempted was canned because of World War One breaking out and much like that, the Second World War sealed the design's fate and none were ever built.

This sprite is free to use on the condition that mine and the following names are credited:
Sprite: tsDra90n , Myself

Note to Midnight Express. Apologies if you were probably make this beast of a Swindon locomotive and if you didn't, then I feel honoured in doing this monster of a locomotive in your style.

Edit: Fixed the shape of the water tanks to match the diagram.
