Transferred Dinas, in August 1997 for use on reconstruction work. [1][2], The success of the Class NG G13 narrow gauge Garratts that were introduced by the South African Railways (SAR) in 1927 led to a decision that any additional narrow gauge articulated locomotives would be of the same design. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". The mill gave it the number 9 and used it to work sugar cane wagons in Innisfail district of Far North Queensland. While West Africa found its solution in larger 4-6-2 Pacific and 2-8-2 Mikado locomotives at the beginning of the twentieth century, the steeper gradients and tighter curves in South Africa made a different solution necessary. [10] The 1309 was also the last steam locomotive that Baldwin built for the North American market. 141 in 1989. Typical for many locomotives is a livery that has thick horizontal bands of dark blue, light blue, silver and a yellow stripe. [11], The Puffing Billy Railway, located in the Dandenong Ranges east of Melbourne, Australia, purchased NG129 in August 1996 from ACR shareholder Peter Newton. [2][3], Another drawback is the risk of tilting. These are Cockerill-built no. [6][7] These were unsuccessful, and later engines used conventional boilers. 2644 and Class 26 no. NG113 and Hunslet-Taylor-built no. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". Power car is a single-ended locomotive without passenger interiors. A major overhaul on its power units was completed in May 2016, taking 18 months. Locomotive 491 is truly a "Colorado original" having been built entirely in Colorado during the spring of 1928 through a cooperative effort between the Stearns-Roger Manufacturing Company of Denver and the D&RGW Denver Burnham Shops. On a Garratt, the boiler could literally be dimensioned up to the full cross section of the loading gauge. These were used in helper service in the Rockies and Selkirks. Purchased in 2014 from Exmoor Steam Railway by Steam Powered Services and currently owned by Peter Best. It is currently in active service, and a spare boiler is being overhauled for it ahead of a planned overhaul in 2021/22. Price: GBP80 plus GBP1.50 p+p in the UK. 3985 is being restored to operating condition by the Railroading Heritage of Midwest America.[12][13]. The last compound Mallets to remain in use on a major North American railroad were the N&W class Y6b 2-8-8-2 locomotives, retired in July 1959. Currently used as a mess coach on construction trains and as a reserve passenger brake vehicle. This was further worsened by dynamic instability of the front end in running. Fully upholstered, heated and double glazed coach with double doors for wheelchair access, sponsored by First Hydro and delivered to Dinas in September 1997 for the start of the Caernarfon service. More pictures on the Patons County Photos page: NGG11-55 - Estcourt - TH-NGG11-55 - Estcourt - TH NGG11-55 - Port Elizabeth - JL - (KSC) . 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. Mallets were employed in Brazilian 1,000mm (3ft3+38in) metre gauge, tight-radius railroads. When they were designated Class NG G16, the "NG/G13" was altered to "NG/G16" by milling out the 3 and riveting on a 6, as shown. 58 Rio Grande No. Ten-yearly overhaul was completed in 2020, with the locomotive now painted in South African Railways black with SAR/SAS logo on the coal bunker. Imported in two variants, one for run on commuter services and other run on long distance services. Since no other overseas manufacturers were available to supply them, they were built by Hunslet-Taylor in Germiston using boilers supplied by their overseas principals, the Hunslet Engine Company in England. On December 17, 2021, C&O 1309 (now WMSR 1309) entered excursion service on the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad. Australian Standard Garratt; B Category:Bagnall; Baldwin 608; Baldwin Class 10-12-D; On display in good cosmetic condition, on loan from Sandstone Estates. The result is improved combustion, thereby minimising black smoke, which is evidence of incomplete combustion and unburnt coal particles being ejected through the exhaust. Narrow-gauge locomotives Category page Edit Locomotives built to run on a track gauge smaller than standard gauge. In 2004 the locomotive was purchased by a member of the Lynton & Barnstaple Trust, who shipped it from Australia in 2005. [1], As part of their strategy to keep the railway competitive, two of the ACR's Class NG G16 locomotives were rebuilt using technology similar to that used in the Cape gauge Class 26 Red Devil. In Canada, the Canadian Pacific Railway experimented with an unusual design of Mallet promoted by H.H. These locomotives were introduced in 1926 to increase train sizes and thus reduce losses on . This created the risk of the locomotive tilting over on tight curves. The exhaust steam from these cylinders was fed into a . [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. Locomotive has the NGG16A boiler unit but carried the standard British built unmodified power units off 142. Collector's Series These kits are faithful depictions of classic narrow gauge designs, covering prototypes from 1'11" gauge (60cm) to 2'6". [1], A Garratt is actually two separate locomotives combined in a double articulated format, thereby providing multiple powered axles over which the total locomotive weight is spread. Large numbers of Mallet designs for narrow gauge railways were built, but in 1889 the first six standard gauge examples were built by J A Maffei for the Swiss Central railways, and an 87 tonne 0-6-6-0T banker (US: pusher) for the Gotthard Bahn, the last being the most powerful and heaviest locomotive in the world at the time. Transferred to Dinas, in April 2000 for use as a stand-by on passenger engine. The rebuilding incorporated a gas producing combustion system (GPCS), Lempor exhausts, an improved spark arrester, lightweight multi-ring articulated piston valves, improved valve events and improved mechanical lubrication. They weighed 760,000 to 772,000lb (345,000 to 350,000kg) with a 434,000lb (197,000kg) tender; at 133 feet (40.54m) long (including the tender), they could only be turned on a few of the system's turntables. England Locomotive is for sale. CC 50 22, an early Dutch-built Indonesian Mallets has been returned to the Netherlands and is now exhibited in the Dutch Railway Museum but meanwhile, the other 2 like CC 50 01 is preserved in Transportation Museum in TMII and CC 50 29 is preserved in the Ambarawa Railway Museum. [9] Only ten (of 25 originally ordered) were built before the order was cancelled, the last delivered in September 1949. [1][2], After completion of the Otavi Railway's gauge widening by April 1961, a flood of Class NG15 locomotives from South West Africa swamped the Humewood Road depot in Port Elizabeth. The final Garratt locomotive built at Gorton works, South African Railways NG/G16 No.143 is also now at the Welsh Highland Railway. Not to be confused with the steam locomotive E1, this electric locomotive is not in commercial use. Diesel locomotives and multiple unit numbering started from 500 - an Armstrong Whitworth 122 hp 0-4-0 diesel-electric shunter delivered in 1934 [12] - and reached 840 in 1991. [11] Several however, have now been cut up for scrap (see table below). Mallet designs were popular in Hungary, too. Sri Lanka's first railway locomotive was Leopold, in 1864. A new boiler has been constructed at the South Devon Railway (heritage railway) Articulated locomotive with compound steam power, Learn how and when to remove this template message, "Virginian 2-10-10-2 Locomotives of the USA", "Chesapeake & Ohio / Hocking Valley 2-6-6-2 "Mallet Mogul" Locomotives in the USA", "Steam Locomotive #110:: 1880 Train:: 2018 Season", "Railroading Heritage of Midwest America - official website", "Work begins on Union Pacific Challenger No. Finished in U.K. Pullman Car Company livery.

All operational locomotives in the country today are broad gauge. Captions 26, 32. Narrow gauge locomotives like the Class NG G16, on the other hand, have plenty of height available for the exhaust, so a single long chimney was achievable. 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. NG55 was stored in the open at Ixopo awaiting extensive boiler repairs. Running numbers 99 5901-3 and 99 5906 are in working order. Photo credit: David Benn section of surviving Narrow Gauge Garratt locomotives in the world. Superheating also required alteration of the valve gear and piston valves were therefore used instead of slide valves. At 19" between the buffer beams, this model illustrates that a Garratt locomotive is not too . The first Mallet locomotive in the United States was Baltimore & Ohio Railroad number 2400, built by Alco in 1904. This is a list of the rolling stock owned by the Ffestiniog Railway Company which is used to operate the Welsh Highland Railway, Ex Tasmanian Government Railways K class, the world's first Garratt locomotive. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". In 1931, three narrow-gauge Class NG15 locomotives with a 2-8-2 Mikado type wheel arrangement, similar in design to the existing Class Hd and Class NG5 locomotives, were acquired by the South African Railways for the Otavi Mining and Railway Company in South West Africa. Soul of A Railway, System 3: Cape Midland, based in Port Elizabeth, Part 4: Loerie to Assegaaibos. Commenced service on the Puffing Billy Railway in December 2019 before being withdrawn again for further work. [3], Although they had already been ordered in 1914, production was disrupted by the First World War. That proposal, however, never became reality since the line's farming produce traffic was gradually lost to road transport on the improving road network, a decline which eventually led to the ACR's demise. GM Detroit Diesel V16 engine. It was available in the WHR Edison Energy Green, No 138, Plain Black as No 143, or without plates in GWR Green with red lining, or in LMS Crimson Lake with yellow lining. The South African built 16A power units were cut up at Paddock October 2017. Unrestored, scrap condition. As water and coal is consumed, the weight over the coupled wheels is reduced, thereby reducing their factor of adhesion, the ratio of weight on coupled wheels to tractive effort. The strongest Mallet locomotives in Europe were the members of the MV 601 which was built for the Hungarian State Railways, it was a 2-6-6-0 locomotive. The last steam locomotive built for the South African Railways. Arrived on the WHR 18 February 2010. [1], Ejector pump efficiency depends on the length-to-diameter ratio of the exhaust chimney. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". The following locomotives are normally Ffestiniog Railway stock that have run on the WHR. 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. "Union Pacific Big Boy", an example of a simple Mallet. Narrow Gauge Garratt locomotives Herbert Garratt - and his Sandstone locomotives An iconic Sandstone scene. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2976, Beyer Peacock builders No.7625. Under construction at Boston Lodge. 156 power units were cut up at Paddock in October 2017. Either method was expensive and, in such conditions, the Garratt design had distinct advantages. On this Wikipedia the language links are at the top of the page across from the article title. [2][7], The final order for eight locomotives in 1967, numbered in the range from NG149 to NG156, turned out to be the last new steam locomotives to be ordered by the SAR. D&RGW Railroad Steam Locomotive No. [3] Many more steam locomotives were added to the system, through to the 1950s. A dedicated carriage containing toilet, guard's office and buffet store, similar to Carriage 124 on the Ffestiniog Railway. The South African Railways Class NG G16 2-6-2+2-6-2 was a narrow gauge steam locomotive. [9][10], The GPCS relies on the gasification of coal on a low temperature firebed so that the gases are then fully burnt above the firebed. This has been supplemented by later information as it became available. Two 2-8-8-4 examples built in Russia in 195455 were probably the last Mallets built in Europe.[3]. Updated start of season 2020.[10]. It was built for the Drewry Car Co, for Underhill Day & Co, for the South Johnstone Co-operative Sugar Milling Association in Australia. Steam under pressure is converted into mechanical energy more efficiently if it is used in a compound engine; in such an engine steam from a boiler is used in high-pressure (HP) cylinders and then under reduced pressure in a second set of cylinders. Narrow Gauge 400 class-class 4-8-2+2-8-4 Garratt locomotives 400 class 400 to 409 Jump to: The 400 class class 4-8-2+2-8-4 type Garratt locomotives were built for use on the South Australian Railways narrow gauge system between Port Pirie and Broken Hill hauling heavy ore trains. NG141 in 1989 and no. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". [1][2], When the lower section of the Avontuur line was dieselised upon the arrival of the Class 91-000 diesel-electric locomotives in 1973, all the Class NG G16 locomotives still in service were transferred to various branches in Natal, where they remained until they were withdrawn from service. Garratts may not be nearly as big as Big Boys, Yellowstones, Alleghenys, etc. On this Wikipedia the language links are at the top of the page across from the article title. More Pictures > 400 The exhaust steam from these cylinders was fed into a low-pressure receiver and was then sent to low-pressure cylinders that powered the driving wheels on the swiveling bogie towards the front of locomotive. Weighing 71.25 tons, they were initially used on the main quarry line until replaced by the diesel, later being used as shunters. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2980, Beyer Peacock builders No.7629. [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. Some are not in use. [11], The two locomotives of the second order also served in Natal, ending up working on the branch from Estcourt to Weenen. These two were superheated and, as a result, had longer smokeboxes and were 9+12 inches (241 millimetres) longer in overall length. Like the Class 26, no. [12] Completion of no. Between 1937 and 1968, the South African Railways placed 34 Class NG G16 Garratt articulated 2-6-2+2-6-2 steam locomotives in service on the Avontuur Railway and on the Natal narrow gauge lines. Purchased from Exmoor Steam Centre, who imported it to the UK. By 1892 110 Mallets were at work, of which 24 were standard gauge; by 1900 there were nearly 400, of which 218 were on standard gauge or Russian gauge (1,520mm (.mw-parser-output .frac{white-space:nowrap}.mw-parser-output .frac .num,.mw-parser-output .frac .den{font-size:80%;line-height:0;vertical-align:super}.mw-parser-output .frac .den{vertical-align:sub}.mw-parser-output .sr-only{border:0;clip:rect(0,0,0,0);height:1px;margin:-1px;overflow:hidden;padding:0;position:absolute;width:1px}4ft11+2732in)).

All three, numbered in the range from NG51 to NG53, were erected at the Uitenhage workshops and no. 23, re-establishing the division between FR and WHR stock in the combined stock list. Underwent a major restoration at Boston Lodge Works. As of March 2022, Sri Lanka does not have commercially operational electric locomotives or train sets. [5], On a Garratt locomotive, the shared boiler and cab are carried on a cradle frame which is suspended on pivot centres attached to the frames of the two engine units, which are both free to align itself to the track curvature. 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. Therefore, as the weight on the coupled wheels decreases, the locomotive has less adhesion and becomes increasingly prone to slipping. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". [3], Mallet found typical main line railways were unwilling to adopt his ideas. Both modified locomotives were reclassified to Class NG G16A. These narrow gauge Garratts had boilers of 4 feet 2 inches (1,270 millimetres) inside diameter on a frame width of about 6 feet 1012 inches (2,096 millimetres). The Harding line was privatised in 1988 as the Alfred County Railway (ACR), operating out of Port Shepstone. On this Wikipedia the language links are at the top of the page across from the article title. They had outside plate frames, Walschaerts valve gear, Belpaire fireboxes and used saturated steam and slide valves. Porta.

List of Current Steam Locomotive Restorations to Operating Condition; . [12], Narrow gauge locomotives were numbered in the same list as broad gauge locomotives. [5], The Railways upgraded its service to diesel locomotives, under the leadership of B. D. Rampala in the mid 1950s. When fleets of such locomotives appeared in the middle 1920s the trade press called them "Simple Mallets" i.e., simple locomotives articulated like Mallets. As of January 2023, No. Compounding was proposed by the British engineer Jonathan Hornblower in 1781. This, in turn, results in a more powerful locomotive, since a much larger percentage of the locomotive's total mass contributes to traction compared to a tender locomotive of similar total mass. NG51 was later returned to the Avontuur line to replace the retiring Class NG3 no. Constructed by Nippon Sharyo in Japan, they were the only Mallets built in Asia. between 1995 and 2002 with numbers RB1 to RB14. Another 2 WDG4D locomotives are to be arrived. Steam locomotives were numbered from 1 upwards, reaching 161 in 1911. Three Mallets ran in Australia, including one on the Magnet Tramway in Tasmania. On postage stamps, for example, it was "Zuid Afrika" from 1913, "Suidafrika" from the airmail stamps of 1925 and hyphenated "Suid-Afrika" from 1933. We still hope for this engine to be preserved in railway museums, but there is a chance to make a new built of the class. [4], On the South African Railways (SAR) narrow gauge lines, that solution was found in 1914 when orders were placed with Beyer, Peacock and Company for a narrow-gauge Garratt locomotive. 491 is the largest operating narrow gauge steam locomotive in the western hemisphere.
