Between 1881 and 1904 sixteen 0-4-0 saddle-tank locomotives entered shunting and construction service at the Table Bay Harbour in Cape Town. Three of them were built to Brunel gauge for breakwater construction while the rest were all built to Cape gauge for use as dock shunters. They were taken onto the Cape Government Railways roster in 1908 and when the South African Railways was established, thirteen were still in stock.〔〔Contents of emails received from Dr John Middleton, Washington.

They were delivered in five batches from three manufacturers.〔 * Three locomotives were delivered from Black, Hawthorn & Co. in 1881. Two of them were built to Brunel gauge for service as breakwater construction engines on the Table Bay Harbour improvement project and were numbered 4 and 5. The project had been started in 1860 and involved the excavation of two basins and the construction of breakwater piers. The third locomotive, no. 6, was built to for service as dock shunter at Table Bay Harbour.〔〔Contents of emails received from Dr John Middleton, Washington. Transcripts copied to Table Bay Harbour construction locomotives for retention and easy reference.〕 * They were followed by four more locomotives from the same manufacturer between 1890 and 1893. Three of them, numbered 1, 7 and 9, were Cape gauge for use as dock shunters, while the fourth one, no. 8, was Brunel gauge for use on breakwater construction.〔〔〔 * Two more locomotives followed from Black, Hawthorn in late 1895 or early 1896, both Cape gauge and numbered 10 and 11.〔 * During 1896 the firm of Black, Hawthorn was taken over by Chapman and Furneaux, who delivered another six of these locomotives in 1897 and 1898, all built to Cape gauge and numbered in the range from 12 to 17.〔〔 * In 1904 a single 0-4-0ST locomotive, no. 29, was delivered from Hawthorn Leslie and Company. It is not known whether it was built to the same design as the aforementioned fifteen locomotives, although it is possible since, when Chapman and Furneaux closed, its drawings, patterns and goodwill were bought by Hawthorn, Leslie.〔Contents of emails received from Dr John Middleton, Washington.
