The South African Railways Class H2 4-8-2T of 1909 is a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Natal Colony. Between 1899 and 1903 the Natal Government Railways placed one hundred and one tank steam locomotives in service. By 1910 five of them had been converted to a wheel arrangement and in 1912, with the establishment of the South African Railways, these five were designated Class H2.〔Classification of S.A.R. Engines with Renumbering Lists, issued by the Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Office, Pretoria, January 1912, pp. 7, 11, 13, 23 (Reprinted in April 1987 by SATS Museum, R.3125-6/9/11-1000)〕 ==Origin== The requirement for a tank locomotive that could haul at least one and a half times as much as a locomotive on the mainline of the Natal Government Railways (NGR) resulted in the design of a tank locomotive by NGR Locomotive Superintendent G.W. Reid. Altogether one hundred and one of these locomotives were built by Dübs and Company and North British Locomotive Company, delivered between 1899 and 1903 and numbered 149 to 249. On the NGR the locomotive type became known as the "Reid Tenwheeler", until a classification system was introduced in 1905 or 1906 and they were designated the NGR Class C.〔〔〔''The Railway Report for year ending 31 Dec. 1908'', Natal Government Railways, p. 39, par 14.〕〔''The Railway Report for year ending 31 December 1906'', Natal Government .〕
