South African Class 13 4-8-0TT
The South African Railways Class 13 4-8-0TT of 1905 is a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Transvaal.
In 1902, towards the end of the Second Boer War, the Imperial Military Railways placed thirty-five tank locomotives in service, built to the specifications of the Reid Tenwheeler of the Natal Government Railways. At the end of the war, these locomotives were transferred to the Central South African Railways as Class E. Most of them were then converted to tank-and-tender locomotives. In 1912, when these converted locomotives came onto the South African Railways roster, they were designated Class 13.〔Classification of S.A.R.

==Origin==
The requirement for a tank locomotive that could haul at least one and a half times as much as a Dübs A 4-8-2T locomotive on the Natal Government Railways (NGR) mainline resulted in the design of a tank locomotive by G.W. Reid, Locomotive Superintendent of the NGR at the end of the 19th century. On the NGR the locomotive type became known as the Reid Tenwheeler.〔
