The locomotives were designed by Nigel Gresley to haul express trains over the difficult Edinburgh to Aberdeen section of the London and North Eastern Railway. In the design Gresley was influenced by recent French practice, in particular passenger locomotives of the Paris à Orléans railway.[3] The first locomotive of the class, No.2001 Cock o' the North, was introduced in 1934. It was built at Doncaster Works,[4] with Lentz-type[citation needed] rotary-cam actuated poppet valve-gear supplied by the Associated Locomotive Equipment Company,[5] and a double-chimney Kylchap exhaust, each chimney using four nozzle blastpipes.[6] The chimney system was designed to take different fittings to allow experimentation with exhaust arrangements
