The South African Railways Class 8Z 2-8-0 of 1904 is a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Cape of Good Hope. In 1904 the Cape Government Railways placed its last eight 8th Class 2-8-0 Consolidation type steam locomotives in service. Most other Cape 8th Class locomotives were built with a Mastodon type wheel arrangement. In 1912, when they were assimilated into the South African Railways, these eight were renumbered and reclassified to Class 8Z.〔Classification of S.A.R. Engines with Renumbering Lists, issued by the Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Office, Pretoria, January 1912, pp. 9, 12, 15, 36 (Reprinted in April 1987 by SATS Museum, R.3125-6/9/11-1000)〕 ==Manufacturer== The first locomotive in the Cape Government Railways (CGR) Consolidation type 8th Class, later to become the South African Railways (SAR) Class 8X, was designed by H.M. Beatty, the CGR’s Chief Locomotive Superintendent from 1896 to 1910.〔 In 1904 a third batch of eight of these locomotives was ordered from the North British Locomotive Company of Glasgow, Scotland. All eight were allocated to the Cape Western System of the CGR, numbered in the range from 821 to 828. After these, all subsequent CGR 8th Class locomotives were built with a Mastodon wheel arrangement.〔〔North British Locomotive Company works list, compiled by Austrian locomotive historian Bernhard Schmeiser〕
