SAR Class A 196 (4-8-2T)
Title:  SAR Class A 196 (4-8-2T)
Description:  In 1888 the Natal Government Railways placed the first five of its eventual one hundred Dübs A Class 4-8-2T tank steam locomotives in service. The last of the one hundred, built in ten batches, was delivered by Dübs and Company in 1899. As far as is known, the Dübs A locomotives were the first in the world to have a 4-8-2 wheel arrangement, later to become known as the Mountain type. In 1912, when these locomotives were assimilated into the South African Railways, they were renumbered in the range from 97 to 196 and reclassified to Class A. In 1915 another two Class A locomotives were built from spare parts by the South African Railways and numbered 332 and 333.

SAR Class H2 314 (4-8-2T)
Title:  SAR Class H2 314 (4-8-2T)
Description:  Between 1899 and 1903 the Natal Government Railways placed one hundred and one 4-10-2T tank steam locomotives in service, designed by Locomotive Superintendent G.W. Reid and commonly known as the Reid Tenwheelers. They were built in six batches by Dübs and Company and North British Locomotive Company. By 1910 five of them had been converted to a 4-8-2T wheel arrangement and in 1912, with the establishment of the South African Railways, these five were designated Class H2 and numbered in the range from 227 to 231. After 1912 the remaining 4-10-2T locomotives, which had been designated Class H in 1912, were gradually also modified to a 4-8-2T wheel arrangement. The first three of these, numbers 240, 294 and 305, were reclassified to Class H2 as well and were renumbered once again, to 329, 330 and 331 respectively. The rest retained their Class H numbers even after modification.

SAR Class 19C 2439 (4-8-2)
Title:  SAR Class 19C 2439 (4-8-2)
Description:  In 1935 the South African Railways placed fifty Class 19C steam locomotives with a 4-8-2 Mountain wheel arrangement in service. They were built by North British Locomotive Company and were numbered in the range from 2435 to 2484. These locomotives were delivered with Watson Standard no. 1A boilers and used Rotary Cam Poppet valve gear. The Poppet valves made the Class 19C a very free-running locomotive, although it required special maintenance techniques.

SAR Class 19D 2506 (4-8-2)
Title:  SAR Class 19D 2506 (4-8-2)
Description:  Between 1937 and 1949 the South African Railways placed two hundred and thirty-five Class 19D locomotives with a 4-8-2 Mountain wheel arrangement in service, built in four batches by five manufacturers (Friedrich Krupp AG, Borsig Lokomotiv Werke, Škoda Works, Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns, and North British Locomotive Company). Between 1951 and 1953 thirty-three more were built by Henschel and Son for other operators like Rhodesia Railways, Benguela Railway in Angola and the Nkana and Wankie mines. The South African Class 19D, nicknamed Dolly, was numbered in the ranges 2506 to 2545, 2626 to 2770 and 3321-3370. The first batch of pre-war Krupp built locomotives were delivered with domeless boilers. The post-war batch of North British built locomotives were delivered with Vanderbilt type torpedo tenders with cylindrical water tanks that ran on three axle Buckeye bogies. Since the Watson Standard no. 1A boilers and the tenders were interchangeable, the domeless boilers and torpedo tenders migrated over time between the different batches of Dollies and even to other members of the Class 19 family.

SAR Class 23 2556 (4-8-2)
Title:  SAR Class 23 2556 (4-8-2)
Description:  In 1938 and 1939 the South African Railways placed one hundred and thirty-six Class 23 locomotives in service. The Class 23 was South Africa’s last and largest 4-8-2 Mountain locomotive, designed by Chief Mechanical Engineer W.A.J. Day and built in four batches by Berliner Maschinenbau and Henschel and Son in Germany. They were numbered in the ranges from 2552 to 2571 and 3201 to 3316. Since these locomotives were intended for working in the Karoo where good quality water is a scarce resource, they were equipped with very large tenders with a high water capacity that rode on six wheeled bogies.

SAR Class 19D 2749 (4-8-2)
Title:  SAR Class 19D 2749 (4-8-2)
Description:  Between 1937 and 1949 the South African Railways placed two hundred and thirty-five Class 19D locomotives with a 4-8-2 Mountain wheel arrangement in service, built in four batches by five manufacturers (Friedrich Krupp AG, Borsig Lokomotiv Werke, Škoda Works, Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns, and North British Locomotive Company). Between 1951 and 1953 thirty-three more were built by Henschel and Son for other operators like Rhodesia Railways, Benguela Railway in Angola and the Nkana and Wankie mines. The South African Class 19D, nicknamed Dolly, was numbered in the ranges 2506 to 2545, 2626 to 2770 and 3321-3370. The first batch of pre-war Krupp built locomotives were delivered with domeless boilers. The post-war batch of North British built locomotives were delivered with Vanderbilt type torpedo tenders with cylindrical water tanks that ran on three axle Buckeye bogies. Since the Watson Standard no. 1A boilers and the tenders were interchangeable, the domeless boilers and torpedo tenders migrated over time between the different batches of Dollies and even to other members of the Class 19 family.
