The Great Northern Railway Class H4 (classified K3 by the LNER) was a class of 2-6-0 steam locomotives designed for mixed-traffic work. The type was a more powerful development of the earlier H3 (LNER K2) class and was notable at the time, as the 6-foot-diameter (1.8 m) boilers were the largest fitted to any British locomotive to that date. After formation of the London and North Eastern Railway, the type became known as class K3 and was adopted as an LNER standard design. They got the nickname "Jazzers" after the rhythm of their exhaust beat and the unbalanced gyratory movement. They were excellent mixed-traffic locomotives, although their large size restricted their route availability. In their latter years, they were primarily employed on vacuum-fitted freight traffic. All were withdrawn and scrapped between 1959 and 1962.
