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. Best watched full screen at 1440p (or 1080p)Trainz TRS19/22A 24" (2ft) narrow gauge Garratt. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2975, Beyer Peacock builders No.7624. Similar to 2100, built at Boston Lodge. 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. In 1989 and 1990 two of these locomotives were rebuilt to Class NG G16A by the Alfred County Railway. Main Page; All Pages; Community; . The Puffing Billy Railway also purchased no. Captions 26, 32. [3][4], Media related to South African Class NG G16 (2-6-2+2-6-2) at Wikimedia Commons. [1] In 1953, Sri Lanka Railways enhanced its service to more power with diesel locomotives. 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. NG55, 4 June 2005, NG G11 no. Similar to 2090. [5], The same problem also existed on Cape gauge light-rail single-line track where train lengths would be limited because conventional locomotives had been enlarged to the limit of their possible power due to restrictions on axle loading. Remaining large components re-assembled using 116 boiler for static display at Ixopo by January 2019. NG127 from Peter Newton in November 2011. Imported in two variants, one for run on commuter services and other run on long distance services. This created the risk of the locomotive tilting over on tight curves. NG51 was later returned to the Avontuur line to replace the retiring Class NG3 no. The object of the latter is to convert the kinetic energy of the combustion gas and exhaust steam mixture to a pressure as close to atmospheric as possible. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2982, Beyer Peacock builders No.7631. The locomotive is a fictional resin and modification by evilcro. MV 401[hu] was a (1B)B locomotive in service between 19051969 and MV 651[hu] 0-6-6-0 until 1962. Coal fired. These six locomotives were ultimately the only articulated locomotives operated by a Canadian railway. As a French-speaking Swiss, Mallet pronounced his name accordingly, something like "Ma-lay". [6], Probably the greatest advantage of the Garratt was that, with its boiler and grate area suspended between two engine units without the need to leave room for coupled wheels and cylinders, wide and deep fireboxes with large grate areas and large diameter boilers were possible. [13] and included one locomotive experimentally converted to electric traction. Became Ffestiniog Railway property (in exchange for three bogie wagons) in 1926. Entered service in plain black livery in 1998, but was due for boiler recertification in 2009. These ran mostly on 600mm (1ft11+58in) and 700mm (2ft3+916in) gauge networks. For the first time since arriving in Aberystwyth, Garratt NGG13 No. Price: GBP80 plus GBP1.50 p+p in the UK. 143 is one of four Beyer-Garratt NGG16 (2-6-2 + 2-6-2T) locomotives, formerly from South Africa, that provide the power for the new Welsh Highland Railway. Total rebuild carried out including a new all-welded steel boiler and conversion to 2'6" gauge. 141 was also painted red and nicknamed the Red Dragon. NG54 was restored in Bloemfontein in 1989, After a period working the Apple Express out of Port Elizabeth, it ended up staged out of service at Humewood Road until it was removed by Sandstone Estates in 2011 for safe-keeping. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". [. It is currently in active service, and a spare boiler is being overhauled for it ahead of a planned overhaul in 2021/22.

It was built for the Drewry Car Co, for Underhill Day & Co, for the South Johnstone Co-operative Sugar Milling Association in Australia. Built at Boston Lodge. It was planned to use them as tank-and-tender Garratts, semi-permanently attached to a water tender for use across the Namib desert in SWA, as was the practice with the Cape gauge Classes GM, GMA and GO tank-and-tender Garratts in South Africa. [3] Manufacturer [ edit] Operational after being overhauled in 2020. (Under licence to Beyer Peacock & Co. - Manchester, England), Entered service as "400". Spent much of its working life in South Africa until it was replaced by diesel traction. These narrow gauge Garratts had boilers of 4feet 2inches (1,270 millimetres) inside diameter on a frame width of about 6feet 10+12inches (2,096 millimetres). 4014 is the largest, heaviest, and most powerful operational steam locomotive in the world. Power car is a single-ended locomotive without passenger interiors. [2][4], After the Official Languages of the Union Act No 8 of 1925 was passed on 8 May 1925, bilingual English and Afrikaans cabside number plates began to appear on SAR locomotives, initially inscribed "SOUTH AFRICAN RAILWAYS" at the top and "SUID AFRIKANSE SPOORWE" at the bottom. Heated and double glazed. Vaughan, then Chief Mechanical Officer and Assistant to the CPR Vice-President. All the steam locomotives bar three were manufactured in the United Kingdom; the exceptions were three 4-4-0s built at the railway's Maradana Works near Colombo in 1900 and 1905. As of September 2021 it hauls tourist trains on 5% grades.[18]. Four were delivered by Socit Anonyme John Cockerill of Seraing in Belgium in 1937, twenty-two by Beyer, Peacock and Company between 1939 and 1958, and the last eight by Hunslet-Taylor in Germiston, Transvaal in 1967 and 1968. Sri Lanka's locomotives have appeared in several different liveries over the years. Locomotives and train sets of Sri Lanka Railways consist mostly of diesel locomotives and multiple units. This model is based on the beautiful South African NG G13 locomotive. Owned by Transnet Heritage Trust. 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. By 2011 it was being restored and rebuilt in Bloemfontein. Sold to the Puffing Billy Railway by ACR shareholder Peter Newton in 1996. With each set of cylinders and coupled wheels constituting a separate engine, the end result was two locomotives in one, with one huge shared boiler which needed only one crew. The compound steam system fed steam at boiler pressure to high-pressure cylinders driving the rear set of driving wheels (rigidly connected to the boiler). Note: One class N2 locomotive was re-classified as Class E1 after fitting with Alstom pantographs, to be run under electric power. A Garratt locomotive is a locomotive with two separate engine units, useful for pulling a lot on tracks with a small curve radius like narrow gauge tracks or Lego tracks. Now in service. 318 Denver & Rio Grande Southern No. [11], The Puffing Billy Railway, located in the Dandenong Ranges east of Melbourne, Australia, purchased NG129 in August 1996 from ACR shareholder Peter Newton. In 1964 they were both transferred to the Avontuur line in exchange for two newer Class NG G13 locomotives. Trending pages Rio Grande No. 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. Almost identical to, A small Simplex locomotive loaned to the WHR by Innogy that has been used on construction trains, particularly on the. NG87 and Beyer, Peacock-built numbers NG130, NG138 and NG143, are used for operational purposes. The model represents the Garratt locomotives presently running on the Welsh Highland Railway. 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". 141 in 1989. After first being steamed in September 2019 129, in November 2019 it underwent light engine and load testing.[14][15]. 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. The locomotive has a Gardner 8LW diesel engine de-rated to 132hp. At 56 tonnes this locomotive was one of the largest steam metre gauge locos ever built in Europe. With the introduction of diesel locomotives, coloured liveries appeared. [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. In addition, the articulated design of the earlier models, as well as the most powerful, the 1956 model locomotive with its 4-8-2+2-8-4 axle arrangement, enabled it . Scrapped at Paddock, South Africa September 2017. [2][3], Another drawback is the risk of tilting. G42 was located on the Moe to Walhalla line in the states south-east. My model of these very attractive Garratt locomotives is Peter Angus works No.119, and is built to the scale of 16mm to the foot for operation on 45mm track. The locomotive will be overhauled and re-gauged before entering service.[8]. Not in operation and the power cars were scrapped. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". Constructed by Nippon Sharyo in Japan, they were the only Mallets built in Asia. Built in 1967 and 1968, these locomotives had the same enlarged capacity front water tanks as those of the Tsumeb group, but their rear bunkers were identical to those of the 1951 batch of locomotives and carried both coal and water. The Australian Standard Garratt (ASG) was a Garratt steam locomotive designed in Australia during World War II, and used on 3 ft 6 in ( 1,067 mm) narrow gauge railway systems in Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania . The Harding line was privatised in 1988 as the Alfred County Railway (ACR), operating out of Port Shepstone. Alternative solutions would either be double-heading longer trains or re-building and re-aligning large parts of the lines to accommodate heavier locomotives. "The Ultimate Steam Page P. Girdlestone", "Alfred County Railway 2-6-2+2-6-2 NG G16A Garratts 141 & 155", Australian Railway Historical Society Bulletin, South African locomotive numbering and classification, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=South_African_Class_NG_G16_2-6-2%2B2-6-2&oldid=1130989940, Preserved narrow gauge steam locomotives of Great Britain, Short description is different from Wikidata, Use South African English from November 2013, All Wikipedia articles written in South African English, Articles with unsourced statements from April 2021, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License 3.0, NG85-NG88, NG109-NG116, NG125-NG131, NG137-NG143, NG149-NG156. NG51 later. 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. Power cars are single-ended locomotives without passenger interiors. is now at Paton County Narrow Gauge Railway . In February 2020 it was announced that 141 would give up its 16A power units to make 155 whole with 141 being cosmetically restored at some point in time using available standard NG16 parts at Sandstone. This 335hp diesel hydraulic locomotive was built for work in a diamond mine and was later used for cement traffic at Port Elizabeth, South Africa. Caption 4. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2974, Beyer Peacock builders No.7623. Between 1937 and 1968 the South African Railways placed 34 Class NG G16 2-6-2+2-6-2 Garratt articulated steam locomotives in service. The BlonayChamby museum railway has two Mallets. Several smaller logging-railroad Mallets have been restored to operating condition, including 2-6-6-2T Black Hills Central #110 in Hill City, South Dakota, 2-6-6-2T Clover Valley Lumber Company #4 in Sunol, California,[15] and 2-4-4-2 Deep River Logging "Skookum" #7 in Garibaldi, Oregon. 155, was rebuilt in 1990, but it retained its traditional ex-SAR black livery. 491 is the largest operating narrow gauge steam locomotive in the western hemisphere. Various other liveries also exist. Not in use. These three locomotives were not superheated. Unrestored, scrap condition. Some parts including the British built Hunslet boiler used to make 116 whole. In Canada, the Canadian Pacific Railway experimented with an unusual design of Mallet promoted by H.H. NG5 as yard shunter at Humewood Road. [1], Ejector pump efficiency depends on the length-to-diameter ratio of the exhaust chimney. Locomotive has the NGG16A boiler unit but carried the standard British built unmodified power units off 142. 0-4-4-0 metre gauge Mallet built by Maschinenbau-Gesellschaft Karlsruhe, operated commercially by the Zell im WiesentalTodtnau railway and as of 2021 preserved and still operating at the BlonayChamby museum railway. Funded by WHR Society. Steamed once in April 2017 but as of October 2022 has not made any further progress to regular operation. [1][2][3][4], The challenges of Africa resulted in the regular need for double-heading of steam locomotives on heavy trains. The first Mallet locomotive in the United States was Baltimore & Ohio Railroad number 2400, built by Alco in 1904. These two were superheated and, as a result, had longer smokeboxes and were 9+12 inches (241 millimetres) longer in overall length. Whereafter replacement locomotives were given the same number as the locomotive that they replaced with an "R" prefix; until such time as the old locomotive, now running with an "O" prefix, was finally withdrawn. Commenced service on the Puffing Billy Railway in December 2019 before being withdrawn again for further work. Like the Class 26, no. 20 All items (468) # A B C D E "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. Nicknamed "Old Maude", it was a 0-6-6-0 weighing 334,500lb (151,700kg) and with axle loads of 60,000lb (27,000kg). Replacement for 2115 which is in need of an overhaul. [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. [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. Mallet development culminated in 1941 with the 4-8-8-4 Big Boy type on the Union Pacific railroad. Ex South African Railways NG15 Class Unrestored. It was taken out of service in October 2010 due to mechanical problems and retired from the Union Pacific's excursion program in January 2020. 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. WO6E1- 120 hp Explore. The Mallet locomotive is a type of articulated steam railway locomotive, invented by the Swiss engineer Anatole Mallet (1837-1919).. NG153. [13], Both superheated locomotives still exist. Either method was expensive and, in such conditions, the Garratt design had distinct advantages. [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. The largest compound Mallets were ten 2-10-10-2s built for the Virginian by Alco in 1918; in pairs they pushed coal trains headed by a 2-8-8-2. GM Detroit Diesel V16 engine.
