The NER Class P2 (LNER Class J26) was a class of 0-6-0 steam locomotives of the North Eastern Railway.[1][2] All 50 locomotives survived into British Railways ownership in 1948 and their BR numbers were BR 65730-65779 renumbered from LNER 5730-5779 . None survive into preservation. The design is based on the P1 and Class P. All were withdrawn from 1952 to 1966 and scrapped.
