The South African Railways Class 91-000 of 1973 is a narrow gauge diesel-electric locomotive from the South African Railways era. Between September and December 1973 the South African Railways placed twenty Class 91-000 General Electric type UM6B diesel-electric locomotives in service on its narrow gauge Avontuur Railway line between Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape and Avontuur in the Western Cape. Some of them later also worked on the Alfred County Railway line out of Port Shepstone in KwaZulu-Natal.〔South African Railways Index and Diagrams Electric and Diesel Locomotives, 610mm and 1065mm Gauges, Ref LXD 14/1/100/20, 28 January 1975, as amended〕 ==Manufacturer== The Class 91-000 GE type UM6B diesel-electric locomotive was designed and built for the South African Railways (SAR) by General Electric (GE) in Erie, Pennsylvania. Twenty locomotives were delivered between September and December 1973, numbered in the range from 91-001 to 91-020. It was designed for narrow gauge and is the largest two foot gauge diesel-electric locomotive in the world at an average weight of .〔(Class 91-000 page from the SAR Index and Diagrams of Electric and Diesel Locomotives, Ref LXD 14/1/100/20, Issued 28/1/75 )〕 The usual practice was to have locomotive builder’s works plates attached to the locomotive’s frame below the cab windows. The Class 91-000 locomotives, however, had their works plates mounted on each side of the long hood. With the exception of numbers 91-001 (GE 38604), 91-002 (GE 38603), 91-016 (GE 38619) and 91-017 (GE 38618), the Class 91-000 works numbers are in sequence with their running numbers. It is very likely, however, that this was the result of body panels being swapped between locomotives during overhauls.
