Notes
1) The standard method of steam locomotive classification is used in most cases, with a number relating to the locomotive's power (0 being the least powerful, 8 being the most) followed by the letter 'P' for passenger, 'F' for freight or MT for "Mixed Traffic" (both freight and passengers). The exceptions are non-standard classifications provided by myself for reference, and are as follows.
D : Diesel
DE : Diesel Electric
RM : Rail Motor
CE : Crane Engine
DR : Diesel Railcar
DAS : Diesel Articulated 3-Car Set
XP : Express passenger
DE : Diesel Electric
RM : Rail Motor
CE : Crane Engine
DR : Diesel Railcar
DAS : Diesel Articulated 3-Car Set
XP : Express passenger
The Fowler 0-10-0 banker is not given a classification, presumably as it was a one-off engine built specifically for banking trains up the Lickey Incline in Worcestershire.
2) Building Company abbreviations as follows.
CR : Caledonian Railway
G&SWR : Glasgow and South Western Railway
FR : Furness Railway
HR : Highland Railway
LMS : London, Midland and Scottish Railway
LNWR : London and North Western Railway
LTS : London, Tilbury and Southend Railway
LYR : Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway
NLR : North London Railway
S&D JR : Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway
3) - Names - the names list are not necessarily the official names of the class. Some designs ended up with nicknames, some of which have been used in the above tables and are listed in italics.
4) I have classed 6202 a.ka "Turbomotive" a.k.a "Princess Anne" as a separate class to the remainder of the "Princess Royal" class, mainly due to the nature of its power plant, but partly due to the fact that one source refers to it becoming the sole example of the "Princess Anne" class after its 1952 British Rail rebuild.

6) Wheel Arrangements
As per the standard Whyte Notation. Where a steam classification is used (0-7,'F' or 'P') and no letter is added to a wheel arrangement, the locomotive uses a tender.
T : Tank engine
ST : Saddle Tank
ST : Saddle Tank
7) Numbers in service in 1944
The numbers in Table 1 represent the numbers in service as of the publication of the 1944 ABC (some classes continued to be constructed after 1944, some classes had seen locomotives withdrawn prior to 1944). The numbers in table 2 represent the total number built by both the LMS and British Railways after Nationalisation. Where more information is given on a class, the totals in these sections indicate the final build totals of the class.
