A number of Mallets were constructed for the Nordhausen Wernigerode Eisenbahn, now part of the Harz Narrow Gauge Railways system in Germany. 486 Rio Grande No. The weight of the front part of the boiler was to be supported on an arc-shaped radial bearing. [citation needed], Two of Union Pacific's Challengers survived into preservation. [2][3][4][5], The locomotives were superheated, with a superheater area of 14.9 square metres (160 square feet) and fifteen elements of 38 millimetres (1.5 inches) outside diameter and a 31 millimetres (1.2 inches) bore. Another 2 WDG4D locomotives are to be arrived. Underwent a major restoration at Boston Lodge Works. [2][3][7], However, while the locomotives were being built, the decision was made to convert all the SWA narrow gauge lines to Cape gauge. "Societe Franco-Belge De Materiel Des Chemins De Fer Raismes, France" built 4-8-2+2-8-4 type narrow gauge Garratt steam locomotive. They had flat-topped water tanks with rounded top side edges, and were the first NGG16s to have welded tanks. Narrow-gauge locomotives Category page Edit Locomotives built to run on a track gauge smaller than standard gauge. For all narrow gauge (3ft 6in/1067mm) steam locomotives. Total rebuild carried out including a new all-welded steel boiler and conversion to 2'6" gauge. 3450, have exactly this shape of chimney, but because of height constraints in large locomotives, their chimneys had to be doubled or even tripled to achieve the correct proportions, hence the double exhausts of the two Wardale locomotives. Became Ffestiniog Railway property (in exchange for three bogie wagons) in 1926. [4][14], Steam locomotives were used on regular services until the 1970s.[2][4]. 2-6-6-2T Mallet #110, Black Hills Central Railroad, USA, 2-6-6-2 Restored Mallet #204, ABPF, Rio Negrinho, Santa Catarina, Brazil, A 2-6-6-2 Mallet Locomotive at the Northwest Railway Museum in Snoqualmie, Washington, Portuguese Railways Mallet locomotive No. In January 2017, fully rebuilt, it was transferred to the Sandstone Estates Railroad where it made its operational debut in March 2017 during the annual Stars of Sandstone event. [1][8], The rebuilding was done by mechanical engineer Phil Girdlestone, who was employed as Chief Mechanical Engineer of the ACR primarily for this purpose. As weight and power and length increased, there were experiments with flexible boiler casings; from 1910 the Santa Fe road introduced jointed-boiler 2-6-6-2 locomotives weighing 392,000lb (178,000kg), with a 37 feet (11.28m) long boiler barrel, with a firetube reheater and a firetube feedwater section in front, each separated by a blank section, and variants of a telescopic or bellows type boiler casing.

G42 was to be withdrawn for major maintenance. [2][3][4][5], In 1937, Socit Anonyme John Cockerill of Seraing in Belgium delivered four new 2-6-2+2-6-2 locomotives, numbered in the range from NG85 to NG88, which were so similar to the older locomotives that they were initially designated Class NG G13 as well. 318 Denver & Rio Grande Southern No. 155, was rebuilt in 1990, but it retained its traditional ex-SAR black livery. The single surviving example of a cab-forward Mallet is Southern Pacific 4294, on display at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, California. Replacement for 2115 which is in need of an overhaul. Mallet asserted that the advantages of his concept were: The large-diameter pipe conveying the low-pressure steam from the high-pressure to the low-pressure cylinders acted also as a receiver, forming a buffer for the gas flow. NG127 from Peter Newton in November 2011. The South African Railways Class NG G16 2-6-2+2-6-2 was a narrow gauge steam locomotive. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". Drawing Office, Pretoria, 28 November 1932, South African Railways and Harbours Locomotive Diagram Book, 2'0" & 3'6" Gauge Steam Locomotives, 15 August 1941, as amended, South African National Railway And Steam Museum, "Technology in Australia 1788-1988, Chapter 7, page 460".

England [, Entered service as "403". The Alfred County Railway Class NG G16A 2-6-2+2-6-2 of 1989 is a steam locomotive from the South African Railways era. Power cars are single-ended locomotives without passenger interiors. Moreover, there were adhesion stability problems where the front engine tended to slip and then stall uncontrollably because of an imbalance of tractive effort and axle load, accentuated by the drawbar reaction, and inability of the intermediate steam receiver to accommodate the sudden pressure change. [3][14], Beyer, Peacock and Company works picture of no. The following locomotives are normally Ffestiniog Railway stock that have run on the WHR. [10] This system was abandoned in 1928,[10] with new locomotives being numbered from 249 upwards,[11] and reaching 336 by 1940, and 362 in 1951 when the last steam locomotive a 4-8-0 from WG Bagnall was delivered.

The deal also included 20 container carriers and 30 fuel tank wagons. With the introduction of diesel locomotives, coloured liveries appeared. [1], In comparative testing, no. [1][2][3], The system of grouping narrow-gauge locomotives into classes was only adopted by the SAR somewhere between 1928 and 1930. G41 was put to work on the Colac to Beach Forest and Crowes line in the states (Victoria) south-west. This has been supplemented by later information as it became available. The last Garratt built by. "New as they were, the last C&O steam engines never got adequate maintenance, lengthening the list of work needed to bring 1309 back to life. The Australian Standard Garratt (ASG) locomotive was designed by the Commonwealth Land Transport Board. In 1938, locomotives were reclassified, based on wheel arrangement and gauge. Heated and double glazed. This model is based on the beautiful South African NG G13 locomotive. [1][2], The seven Beyer, Peacock locomotives ordered by the Tsumeb Copper Corporation, numbers NG137 to NG143, were initially distributed between the Umzinto, Port Shepstone and Avontuur lines, but in 1964 the three that went to the Langkloof were also transferred to Natal. A number of the Union Pacific "Big Boys", are preserved, including one overlooking Omaha, Nebraska where UP is based. [13] and included one locomotive experimentally converted to electric traction. Power cars are single-ended locomotives without passenger interiors. Lease lend to the Apple Express Organization. In January 2014, Big Boy #4014 was removed from its museum ground parking track in Pomona, California, and hauled to Cheyenne, Wyoming, for restoration to operating condition; this was completed in May 2019. This was further worsened by dynamic instability of the front end in running.

[1][5], Unlike tender locomotives, Garratts are bi-directional, which eliminates the need for turntables or triangles, also known as wyes. These six locomotives were ultimately the only articulated locomotives operated by a Canadian railway. Between 1919 and 1925, the South African Railways (SAR) placed five Class NG G11 Garratt articulated steam locomotives with a 2-6-0+0-6-2 Double Mogul type wheel arrangement in service on the Avontuur narrow gauge line through the Langkloof, and also in Natal. Back in operation as of February 2020. [8] The AT&SF also had a number of compound 2-10-10-2's, assembled in their own shops from existing 2-10-2's using a kit, supplied by Baldwin, consisting of the front 10-wheel frame and a boiler extension. [2][3], Another drawback is the risk of tilting. Ex-Chattenden and Upnor Railway coach acquired for the WHR from the South Tynedale Railway and regauged from 2ft 6in gauge. Spent much of its working life in South Africa until it was replaced by diesel traction.

Narrow gauge locomotives were numbered in the same list as broad gauge locomotives. Dragon emblems were later mounted on the cab sides and bunker ends. Independent cut-offs for the high-pressure and low-pressure cylinders were advocated by Mallet, but driving standards were inadequate and he later used combined cut-off control. Moved from Paddock to Ixopo by December 2015 with the power units off 149. NG55 entering Ixopo station, 3 September 2005. They could develop 6,290 horsepower (4,690kW) on the drawbar at 35mph (56km/h) and were designed for a top speed of 70mph (110km/h), though they rarely saw these speeds.
