The Baldwin 10-12-D was a class of narrow gauge 4-6-0PT built by Baldwin Locomotive Works for use by the British War Department Light Railways for service in France during World War I. After the war ended, some found their way back to the UK for use on various light railways and later on preserved lines, while some were sent to the Middle East and India.
