The Caledonian Railway 492 Class were a class of 6 0-8-0 tank engines that were built for the Caledonian Railway, in Scotland by St. Rollox Works from November 1903 to January 1904.

These engines were described as mineral engines with large cabs with doors fitted. The 2nd axle had flangeless wheels. All members survived into LMS ownership.
