This class was also noted for its streamlined design, which not only improved its aerodynamics, thus increasing its speed capabilities, but also created an updraught to lift smoke away from the driver's vision, a problem inherent in many steam locomotives particularly those operated with short cut off valve events, smoke deflectors being an alternative answer to the same problem.

An alternative representation uses degrees and minutes, where parts of a minute are expressed in decimal notation with a fraction, thus: 23 ° 27. 500 ′ E. Degrees may also be expressed as a decimal fraction: 23. 45833 ° E.
