The BR Standard 4 No. 76084 is a British steam locomotive built in 1957 at Horwich Works for British Railways. It belongs to the Standard Class 4MT 2-6-0 type, designed by R.A. Riddles as part of the post-war effort to create a versatile, efficient, and easily maintained range of standardised steam engines. The 2-6-0 wheel arrangement, known as the “Mogul,” provided a balance between power and flexibility, making the class suitable for both passenger and freight services across secondary and rural lines.

Number 76084 was one of 115 locomotives built in the class, and it spent its working life mainly in East Anglia, allocated to sheds such as Norwich and March. The engine worked mixed traffic duties until it was withdrawn from service in December 1967 during the rapid replacement of steam with diesel traction. It was then sent for scrapping at Barry scrapyard in South Wales, where it remained for over a decade, one of hundreds of engines awaiting disposal.

Rescued from Barry in 1974, 76084 became part of the growing heritage railway preservation movement. Its restoration was a long-term project that took decades of volunteer labour, engineering expertise, and fundraising to complete. After extensive overhaul, the locomotive returned to steam in 2013, restored to full working order and painted in BR lined black livery with the late crest.

Today, 76084 is a fully operational mainline-registered locomotive based at heritage lines such as the North Norfolk Railway, but it also runs on the national network for special excursions. It represents the practical, modern end of British steam design—reliable, easy to maintain, and capable of respectable power for its size. The engine is a living example of mid-twentieth-century British engineering, bridging the gap between the golden age of steam and the diesel era that followed.
