A total of 1,115 D51 locomotives were built,〔 the largest number of locomotives in a single class in Japan. Early D51s built were known as "Namekuji type" (or "slug"). The specially built D51s that were left on Sakhalin (formerly Karafuto) by the retreating Japanese at the end of World War II were used until 1979 by Soviet Railways.
