The Cape Government Railways 3rd Class 2-6-0T of 1900 was a South African steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Cape of Good Hope. In 1900, during the South African War, four 2-6-0 tank locomotives that were destined for the Nederlandsche-Zuid-Afrikaansche Spoorweg-Maatschappij in the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek were intercepted by the Imperial Military Railways and diverted to Indwe Collieries. When the Cape Government Railways took over the operation of the colliery line and the locomotives after the war, they were designated and when the South African Railways was established, they were designated Class 03. ==Manufacturer== Before the outbreak of the South African War in October 1899, four tank locomotives were ordered by the Nederlandsche-Zuid-Afrikaansche Spoorweg-Maatschappij (NZASM) in the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek (ZAR) from Dickson Manufacturing Company in Scranton, Pennsylvania, through the agency of Arthur Koppel. However, when they were landed in the Cape of Good Hope in 1900, they were commandeered by the Imperial Military Railways (IMR) and allocated to Indwe Collieries.〔〔 The locomotives bore plates inscribed "SS ZAR" for "Staats-Spoorwegen Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek" and were named ''J.S. Smit'', ''J.J. Spier'', ''L.S. Meyer'' and ''C. Birkenstock'', all personalities of note in the ZAR. Indwe Collieries numbered them in the range from 1 to 4.〔〔
