In 1931 the South African Railways placed a single light Class NG G14 Garratt articulated steam locomotive with a 2-6-2+2-6-2 Double Prairie type wheel arrangement in service. ==Manufacturer== The locomotive was built for the South African Railways (SAR) by Hannoversche Maschinenbau AG (Hanomag) in 1930. It was only slightly larger than the Class NG G12, the smallest Garratt to ever enter service on the SAR. Upon delivery it was classified as Class NG G14 and allocated number NG84.〔〔South African Railways and Harbours Locomotive Diagram Book, 2’0” & 3’6” Gauge Steam Locomotives, 15 August 1941, as amended〕 It had a 2-6-2+2-6-2 Double Prairie type wheel arrangement like all the narrow gauge SAR Garratts except the first, the 2-6-0+0-6-2 Class NG G11. It was very similar to the predecessor Class NG G12, but it had cylinders with a larger bore which not only resulted in more power, but also an increase in axle loading. Like the Class NG G12, it also had an outside bar frame and a round top firebox, and it was superheated.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「South African Class NG G14 2-6-2+2-6-2」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
