The London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) Fairburn Tank 2-6-4T is a class of steam locomotive.

Of these, seven were transferred to the North Eastern Region between Spring 1952 and the end of 1954;[2] the other 34 were exchanged for a like number of London Midland Region BR Standard Class 4 2-6-4T locomotives at the end of 1959.

This attractive livery was popular with the public, but strongly divided opinions in the preservation movement for its inaccuracy.

At the same time, 2073 was painted in LNWR blackberry black, which was comparably anachronistic but generated less hostility as it did at least resemble the original livery.

Bachmann produces a 00 Gauge model of the Fairburn 4MT in LMS Black as well as early and late BR, numbered as 42073.
