Designed by Gresley, the first O2 (No. 461) was built in May 1918. A batch of ten further O2s were ordered in March 1919, and these were built by the North British Locomotive Co. in 1921. Immediately after Grouping (1923), fifteen more O2s were quickly built. The first O2, No. 461, was allocated to New England alongside the O1s to haul coal to London. The 1921-24 locomotives were also allocated to New England. Changes to the New England allocation only occurred after 1942 when the WD O7 'Austerity' locomotives displaced twenty one O2s to Doncaster. All 67 O2s survived into BR days. Withdrawals of the remaining O2s started in 1960 with the withdrawal of four locomotives, the last forty withdrawn in 1963. Sixteen appear to have been kept in storage for up to a year before being scrapped. Nonr survive in preservation, pity.
