South African locomotive history

In South Africa, as elsewhere in the world, the railways played a huge part in development and growth on nearly all terrains in the country. Conversely, events in South Africa and its neighbours over the years had a huge influence on the development of railways.
When the articles on the locomotives of South Africa are read sequentially in the order of their years of entering railway service, much of the history of the country becomes apparent between the lines. At the same time the development of steam locomotives can be followed from the basic 0-4-0 to the mighty 4-8-4 wheel arrangements and articulated steam locomotives from the Fairlies and the Kitson-Meyer to the Mallets and ultimately to the Garratts. Likewise with the development of modern traction such as electric, diesel-hydraulic, electro-diesel and diesel-electric locomotives.
This article consists of links to articles on South African locomotives arranged in the order of their years of entering service, with the links embedded in the pictures. In addition, the opening dates of new railway lines are shown.
==Railway construction==
In South Africa and South West Africa all early mainline railway construction took place working inland from harbours and ports. Construction on these lines began in the years from 1859 to 1887 in South Africa and from 1897 to 1908 in South West Africa.
