The Cape Government Railways 0-6-0T Back-to-Back of 1876 is a South African steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Cape of Good Hope. In 1876 the Cape Government Railways placed a pair of 0-6-0 Stephenson’s Patent permanently coupled back-to-back side-tank locomotives in service on its Eastern System. They worked out of East London in comparative trials with the experimental Fairlie locomotive that was acquired in that same year. A third single locomotive of the same design was delivered to the Eastern System in 1879.〔''C.G.R. Numbering Revised'', Article by Dave Littley, SA Rail May–June 1993, pp. 94-95.〕 ==Manufacturer== To address the need for more powerful locomotives on the Eastern System of the Cape Government Railways due to the heavy grades on the line that was being built out of East London, a pair of Stephenson’s patent permanently coupled back-to-back side-tank locomotives was ordered from Robert Stephenson and Company for experimental purposes in 1875. The locomotives were shipped on the vessel ''Claremont'' and arrived in East London on 1 February 1876, numbered E5 and E6 in the Eastern System's number range. A third single locomotive of the same class, numbered E7 and also built by Robert Stephenson, was delivered in 1879.〔〔What were these, 2-6-0T or 0-6-0T?〕〔〔
