(Redirected from Harry Smith Wainwright)
'Harry Smith Wainwright' (1864–1923) was the Locomotive, Carriage and Wagon Superintendent of the South Eastern and Chatham Railway from 1899 to 1913. He is best known for a series of simple but competent locomotives produced under his direction at the company’s Ashford works in the early years of the twentieth century. Many of these survived in service until the end of steam traction in Britain in 1968.
