W・G・バグナル
概要
編集ウィリアム・ゴードン・バグナル(William Gordon Bagnall)によって1875年に設立され、スタフォードにキャッスル工場を置いていたが、1962年にイングリッシュ・エレクトリックに買収され、消滅した。その製品の大半は、小型で産業用の2動軸または3動軸の蒸気機関車で、その多くが狭軌用であった。バグナルは、標準軌や狭軌の蒸気機関車およびディーゼル機関車の製造者として、よく知られていた。
バグナルは、蒸気機関車の弁装置に、バグナル&プライス式やバグレー式といった、いくつかの新機軸を導入した。それはまた、狭軌機関車で安価なものであったが、設計の特徴としてにマリン形(円形)の火室を採用していた。
カー・ステュアートの技師長であったドローツマンを採用した際には、カー・スチュアートの設計の一部がバグナルに持ち込まれた。そのような機関車の例は、シッティング&ケムズレー軽鉄道で見ることができる。
日本との関わり
編集日本の国有鉄道が導入したのは、新橋工場の入換用に購入した1両(後の鉄道院1形)だけで、軌間1,067mm (3ft6in) のものもこれのみである。国有鉄道籍を得たものは、他に762mm (2ft6in) 軌間で旧佐世保鉄道引継ぎのケ97、ケ98があるに過ぎない。バグナルの機関車は小型のものが多く、合わせて7形式14両が青梅鉄道や中遠鉄道、陸軍鉄道連隊などによって輸入されているが、いずれも重量10t以下の軽便鉄道用や産業用のものばかりである。
