The South African Railways Class MA 2-6-6-0 of 1909 is a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Natal Colony. In 1909 the Natal Government Railways placed a single Mallet articulated compound steam locomotive in service. In 1912, when it was assimilated into the South African Railways, it was renumbered and classified as Class MA.〔Classification of S.A.R. Engines with Renumbering Lists, issued by the Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Office, Pretoria, January 1912, pp. 9, 12, 15, 46 (Reprinted in April 1987 by SATS Museum, R.3125-6/9/11-1000)〕 ==Manufacturer== As a result of a visit to the United States of America by Natal Government Railways (NGR) Locomotive Superintendent D.A. Hendrie in 1909 to study Mallet type locomotives and also American locomotive design in general, the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) supplied the NGR with two experimental locomotives that represented a radical departure from previous NGR locomotive designs. One was the Class B America D, later to become the Class 3A on the South African Railways (SAR), while the other was the first Mallet type articulated compound steam locomotive in South Africa.〔〔〔(''Powerful Freight and Passenger Locomotives for a Narrow Gauge Railway'' (1910).
