The South African Railways Class 26 4-8-4 of 1981 is a steam locomotive. The Class 26, popularly known as the ''Red Devil'', is a 4-8-4 steam locomotive that was rebuilt from a Class 25NC locomotive by mechanical engineer David Wardale from England, while in the employ of the South African Railways. The rebuilding took place at the Salt River Works in Cape Town and was based on the principles developed by Argentinian mechanical engineer L.D. Porta.〔(The Ultimate Steam Page )〕 ==Manufacturer== The original locomotive from which the Class 26 was rebuilt entered service in 1953 as the last of the Class 25NC 4-8-4 Northern locomotives to be built. The Class 25 condensing and Class 25NC non-condensing locomotives were designed by the South African Railways (SAR) in conjunction with Henschel and Son and were built in 1953. The first Class 25, number 3451, most of the Class 25 condensing tenders and Class 25NC in the number range from 3412 to 3450 were built by Henschel, while Class 25NC in the number range from 3401 to 3411 and the other eighty-nine Class 25 condensing locomotives were built by the North British Locomotive Company (NBL) in Glasgow, Scotland.〔Henschel-Lieferliste (Henschel & Son works list), compiled by Dietmar Stresow〕〔
