In 1905 the Natal Government Railways placed two Class A steam locomotives with a Pacific type wheel arrangement in service. In 1912, when these locomotives were assimilated into the South African Railways, they were renumbered and designated Class 2.〔Classification of S.A.R. Engines with Renumbering Lists, issued by the Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Office, Pretoria, January 1912, pp. 7, 12, 15, 35 (Reprinted in April 1987 by SATS Museum, R.3125-6/9/11-1000)〕 ==Manufacturer== In 1904 orders were placed with the North British Locomotive Company (NBL) for two Pacific type locomotives for the Natal Government Railways (NGR). They were designed by NGR Locomotive Superintendent D.A. Hendrie for passenger traffic on those sections of the mainline between Ladysmith and Charlestown that did not have very severe gradients. When they were delivered and placed in service early in 1905, they became the NGR Class A, numbered 325 and 326 and also known as the Class Hendrie A.〔〔North British Locomotive Company works list, compiled by Austrian locomotive historian Bernhard Schmeiser〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「South African Class 2 4-6-2」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
