SAR Class 7BS 1056 (4-8-0) |
| Description: |
In 1900 the Imperial Military Railways placed twenty-five Cape 7th Class 4-8-0 Mastodon steam locomotives in service, as well as three intercepted Cape 7th Class locomotives that had been ordered by the Pretoria-Pietersburg Railway. In 1901 one went to the Beira and Mashonaland and Rhodesia Railways as replacement for a damaged locomotive. The remaining twenty-seven were taken on to the Central South African Railways roster at the end of the Second Freedom War in 1902. In 1912 twenty-five of these locomotives were assimilated into the South African Railways, followed in 1913 by the remaining two that had been leased to Paulings. They were renumbered in the range 1032 to 1058 and reclassified to Class 7B. The remaining locomotive was erroneously designated Class 7D no. 1355 upon its return from service with the Rhodesia Railways in 1915. Also in 1915, one more Cape 7th Class locomotive was obtained from the Rhodesia Railways and erroneously classified as Class 7B no. 949 instead of Class 7D. During the 1930s many of these locomotives were equipped with superheated boilers and piston valves and reclassified to Class 7BS.
