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. On display in excellent cosmetic condition. [1] [2] Manufacturers [ edit] [1][9], One visible difference between the original and the rebuilt locomotives is the megaphone-shaped Lempor chimney, which contains a cylindrical mixing chamber and a wide angled diffuser. Spent much of its working life in South Africa until it was replaced by diesel traction. Only the boiler cradle and cab are today genuine 156. Funded by a private donor. Three Mallets ran in Australia, including one on the Magnet Tramway in Tasmania. After several years on light duties a new engine was fitted in October 1999. AbeBooks.com: Victorian Railways Narrow Gauge G Class - Garratts in the Otways - Part Two: 48 pages profusely illustrated colour photos - 48 pages profusely illustrated colour photos - cover spine rubbed - The G class Garratt locomotives were built for the Victorian Railways 2' 6" gauge branch lines. [8], The Cockerill-built locomotives were delivered with bilingual cabside number plates inscribed "NG/G13" and with the older style Afrikaans "SUID AFRIKANSE SPOORWE" at the bottom. But unlike the CC 50 class, all of the CC 10s & DD 50 -52s was sadly cut up for scrap. A development of carriages 2043, 2044 and 2045. [11], The two locomotives of the second order also served in Natal, ending up working on the branch from Estcourt to Weenen. In 1989 and 1990 two of these locomotives were rebuilt to Class NG G16A by the Alfred County Railway. Not in operation and the power cars were scrapped. To accommodate the pivoting, the steam and exhaust pipes have flexible connections between the engine units and the central cradle. Note piston valves on high-pressure cylinders and slide valves on low-pressure cylinders. [citation needed], The Welsh Highland Railway in Wales has five Class NG G16 locomotives. 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. The run to Devil's Bridge was part of testing at the narrow-gauge railway, which runs for 11 34 miles whilst visiting 9 stations and halts. 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. 729 ex demonstrator, ran as DR V150.001; imported 1970. They had outside plate frames, Walschaerts valve gear, Belpaire fireboxes and used saturated steam and slide valves. The use of a Garratt locomotive enables the capacity of a line to be approximately doubled without having to strengthen the track, bridges and culverts, or re-align the curvature. The South African built 16A power units were cut up at Paddock October 2017. NG155 in 1990, were reclassified to Class NG G16A. [1][5], Unlike tender locomotives, Garratts are bi-directional, which eliminates the need for turntables or triangles, also known as wyes. It was CC 50 01 ( Prototype ) in the Transportation museum in TMII, CC 50 22 in Railway Museum (Netherlands) and CC 50 29 in the Ambarawa Railway Museum. Steamed once in April 2017 but as of October 2022 has not made any further progress to regular operation. The South African Railways Class NG G16 2-6-2+2-6-2 was a narrow gauge steam locomotive. [1], The cost of the work paid off financially within twelve months and led to a proposal to develop a Class NG G17 Garratt. In Canada, the Canadian Pacific Railway experimented with an unusual design of Mallet promoted by H.H. 3985", "1309 Restoration | Western Maryland Scenic Railroad", "G 23/3 104 Sddeutsche Eisenbahn Gesellschaft Chemin de fer-muse Blonay-Chamby", "G 22/2 105 Sddeutsche Eisenbahn Gesellschaft Chemin de fer-muse Blonay-Chamby", Baldwin description of Mallet locomotives from 1912, Lake Superior Railroad Museum Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Steam Locomotive No. 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. 346 Rio Grande No. Scrapped at Paddock, South Africa August 2017. [5], The Railways upgraded its service to diesel locomotives, under the leadership of B. D. Rampala in the mid 1950s. It was still at Sandstone in July 2017, stored indoors in reasonable condition awaiting a THF decision on whether to leave it at Sandstone or return it to Humewood Road. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2979, Beyer Peacock builders No.7628. Out of service waiting for a general overhaul and replacement boiler (September 2022). Operational after being overhauled in 2020. The weight of the front part of the boiler was to be supported on an arc-shaped radial bearing. It was one of seven 4-4-0 locomotives built that year for the Ceylon Government Railway by Robert Stephenson & Company (nos. NG55 was stored in the open at Ixopo awaiting extensive boiler repairs. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2981, Beyer Peacock builders No.7630. The front of the locomotive articulated on a bogie. [2][9][10], The first three locomotives were all working in Natal soon after entering service. [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. Fitted with Pullman style armchairs. A number of the Union Pacific "Big Boys", are preserved, including one overlooking Omaha, Nebraska where UP is based. 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. Sri Lanka's first railway locomotive was Leopold, in 1864. In September 2018, Sri Lankan Railway ordered 160 passenger coaches from India under $318M line of credit given by India. Typically they feature horizontal bands of colour running their entire length and a solid colour on the front and back ends. All scrapped, Some were later fitted with small under-floor diesel units and were reclassified T2, Except one (571 Saskatchewan) all others are still in active service, M5A: Re-engined locally using MTU V12 in 1991; M5B: Re-engined locally using, Sub Class M8A: Only 2 locomotives were introduced. Therefore, as the weight on the coupled wheels decreases, the locomotive has less adhesion and becomes increasingly prone to slipping. Scrap condition. NG51 later. 23, re-establishing the division between FR and WHR stock in the combined stock list. Updated * 04-01-2008. . [2], On the Avontuur Railway, these locomotives were used as tank-and-tender Garratts, but when the Langkloof members of the class were transferred to Natal in 1964, the water tenders were dispensed with since watering points were much closer together in Natal as a consequence of the early use of tank engines on those narrow-gauge branches. They have shown their ability to handle loads of 2,000 tons on grades of 1 in 100 at 15 m.p.h., compared with previous loads of 1,650 tons hauled at 8 m.p.h. Converted to coal firing. 155, was rebuilt in 1990, but it retained its traditional ex-SAR black livery. [16], Another industrial type has been purchased and restored by the Statfold Barn Railway in the UK. Locomotive has the NGG16A boiler unit but carried the standard British built unmodified power units off 142. gauge lines of the Bengal Nagpur Railway in India. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". [10] The 1309 was also the last steam locomotive that Baldwin built for the North American market. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2976, Beyer Peacock builders No.7625. The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway introduced 25 simple (non-compound expansion) 2-8-8-2 locomotives in 1924 and 20 more in 1926. A development of carriages 2043, 2044 and 2045. More pictures on the Patons County Photos page: NGG11-55 - Estcourt - TH-NGG11-55 - Estcourt - TH NGG11-55 - Port Elizabeth - JL - (KSC) . The new locomotives were therefore delivered directly to the SAR in 1958. [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. [1][2][7], The Hunslet-Taylor locomotives, numbers NG149 to NG156, were placed in service on the Harding and Donnybrook branches in Natal in 1968. 4014 is the largest, heaviest, and most powerful operational steam locomotive in the world. Compounding was proposed by the British engineer Jonathan Hornblower in 1781. Directory of UK railways, large links page and articles on worldwide narrow gage railroads ex South African Railways Beyer Peacock Garratt at Waunfawr The units were unpopular with crews owing to frequent steam leakages and derailments resulting from the lack of pilot wheels. A replica of an 1894 "Ashbury" NWNGR "Summer Coach". [17] There is also a G 2x 2/2 0-4-4-0 No.105 built by Maschinenfabrik Karlsruhe. Several Mallets have been preserved, some in operational condition. This was the last locomotive built by Beyer, Peacock and Company in Manchester. Since then, the Railways have imported locomotives from Canada, Japan, West Germany, India, France, and China[6][7][8]. 3985 is being restored to operating condition by the Railroading Heritage of Midwest America.[12][13]. All are diesel hydraulic type except DLW locomotive which is diesel electric. Coal fired. Sold to Welshpool and Llanfair Railway in 1962 and to the Ffestiniog Railway in 1968 and re-gauged. [1][2][3], The third order was for a further seven locomotives in 1951, numbered in the range from NG125 to NG131, once again from Beyer, Peacock. Captions 26, 32. WO6E1- 120 hp 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). The ACR was also known as the Banana Express from the tourism part of its operation. [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. No. 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. Moved from Paddock to Ixopo by December 2015 with the power units off 149. In 2010 it was acquired by Sandstone Estates. By July 2017 no. The mill gave it the number 9 and used it to work sugar cane wagons in Innisfail district of Far North Queensland. A major overhaul on its power units was completed in May 2016, taking 18 months. NG55 was restored to full working order also at Bloemfontein for the Patons Country Narrow Gauge Railway (PCNGR) at Ixopo in Natal by 2005. Under construction at Boston Lodge. [11] Several however, have now been cut up for scrap (see table below). In 2017, at least four establishments still operated or were restoring ex-SAR Class NG G16 Garratts. Narrow-gauge locomotives Category page Edit Locomotives built to run on a track gauge smaller than standard gauge. Class of South African 26-2+2-6-2 Garratt locomotives, South African Railways and Harbours Locomotive Diagram Book, 2'0" & 3'6" Gauge Steam Locomotives, 15 August 1941, as amended, Rebuilt Garratt undertakes its first Australian run, SATS / Transnet NG/G16 Garratt Fleet Disposal, Stars of Sandstone, Official Operating Programme for 12th - 21st April 2014. 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. Narrow gauge locomotives were numbered in the same list as broad gauge locomotives. 300 class class Narrow Gauge 300 class-class 4-8-2+2-8-4 Garratt locomotives 300 class 300 to 305 Jump to: The 300 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. To achieve this, the amount of air being drawn up through the firebed is minimised, while the main sources of air required for combustion is through secondary air inlets located in the firebox sides and through the vertically sliding firedoor. All three, numbered in the range from NG51 to NG53, were erected at the Uitenhage workshops and no. Narrow Gauge - Garratt Locomotives - NGG11 - 51 to NGG16 - 116 Pictures and Information Page 1. Mallet's original patent specifies compound expansion, but after his death in 1919 many locomotives (particularly in the United States) were articulated Mallet style without using compounding (for instance the Union Pacific Big Boy). Similar to 2100, built at Boston Lodge. [9][10][11], Since withdrawal from SAR service, some locomotives were sold to foreign railways and into private hands and restored to operational condition, while others ended up in various degrees of preservation ranging across the spectrum from running order to staging to total abandonment. This page was last edited on 21 April 2022, at 19:32. [, Entered service as "409". [1], The GPCS is a single-stage gas producer which achieves an improved combustion and steaming rate, reduces the emission of black smoke and overcomes the problem of clinkering. Numbers 1 and 2: 2-6-0/0-6-2 Beyer Peacock Garratt acquired new in 1936/38. World War 2 put paid to the earlier locomotives and by the 1970s the lines were effectively dieselised and the surviving wartime GB and GC Garratts were reduced to menial duties. Power cars are single-ended locomotives without passenger interiors. Trending pages Rio Grande No. 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. NG127 from Peter Newton in November 2011. 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. [1][2][8][9], With the GPCS, the coal is heated to drive off the volatile components which are then burned in the secondary air admitted above the grate. [9] Only ten (of 25 originally ordered) were built before the order was cancelled, the last delivered in September 1949. All operational locomotives in the country today are broad gauge. They still had elliptical tops on the water tanks and both tank and bunker were riveted as per the pre-war machines, however on the boiler the location of the safety valves, clack valves and main manifold (amongst other details) changed to what would become the standard for all remaining builds. The Afrikaans spelling conventions were changed from time to time in the early years. 229, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mallet_locomotive&oldid=1141931372, Short description is different from Wikidata, Articles with unsourced statements from October 2022, Articles needing additional references from October 2022, All articles needing additional references, Articles with unsourced statements from September 2022, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License 3.0. all the locomotive weight would be adhesive, yet there would be great flexibility of the locomotive as a vehicle; A simple type of very powerful locomotive would be created. These U.S. locomotives were paralleled to some extent by heavy-haul versions in the USSR, though without any attempt at faster running. 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. Sold to the Puffing Billy Railway by ACR shareholder Peter Newton in 1996. A development of the Winson Engineering carriages delivered in 1997, including wider door opening for easier access to passengers with reduced mobility. These locomotives had an enlarged front water tank capacity, but carried no water in their rear bunkers which consequently had a larger coal capacity. Back in operation as of February 2020. Contents 1 History: 2 In Service: 2.1 Queensland Railways: 2.2 Tasmanian Government Railways: Only Garratt to get to Quorn [, Worked to Broken Hill. [, Entered service as "406". Overhaul to operating condition stopped due to several factors. [4], A powerful steam locomotive is problematic on a track gauge of only 2 feet (610 millimetres) with a tight minimum radius of about 150 feet (46 metres) which, in practice, restricts powerful rigid-frame locomotives to four-coupled wheels, often with at least one flangeless coupled wheelset. Produced in the CPR's Angus shops, road numbers 1950 to 1954 were outshopped between 1909 and 1911. Power cars are single-ended locomotives without passenger interiors. [, Entered service as "408". Arrived ex ship "Belnor". [2] In 1953, the first locomotives from British builder Brush Bagnall were imported. Running numbers 99 5901-3 and 99 5906 are in working order. [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. Steam locomotives are no longer used, except on heritage trains, such as the Viceroy Special. Transferred to Dinas by road early September 2008. The locomotive has a Gardner 8LW diesel engine de-rated to 132hp. These new locomotives took over service on a 113-mile (182km) division; a single locomotive hauled 9,500 short tons (8,600t; 8,500 long tons) in five hours.[3]. Alternative solutions would either be double-heading longer trains or re-building and re-aligning large parts of the lines to accommodate heavier locomotives. [5] Currently painted in a "Burrell Plum" livery.[6]. The Puffing Billy Railway also purchased no. Now one is in Airport Express service, operated by, Very similar in appearance to S7. (There was a proposal, late in the steam era, for a 3'6" gauge East African Garratt which would have been a large locomotive even by U.S. standard . Similar to Carriage 2010.The first coach built for the Caernarfon service, delivered to. Entered service in 1997 in unlined dark green, then malachite green as of 2002 when it was named, withdrawn in late 2007 and stripped for 10 year boiler inspection. The Mallet locomotive is a type of articulated steam railway locomotive, invented by the Swiss engineer Anatole Mallet (18371919). [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 cost of the work paid off financially within twelve months and led to a proposal to develop a Class NG G17, but that never materialised since the line's farming produce traffic was gradually lost to road transport on the improving road network. 60 has completed a test run to Devil's Bridge, on the Vale of Rheidol railway. The locomotive is a fictional resin and modification by evilcro.

"Societe Franco-Belge De Materiel Des Chemins De Fer Raismes, France" built 4-8-2+2-8-4 type narrow gauge Garratt steam locomotive. Diesel locomotives of Sri Lanka Railway are categorized into several classes and their sub classes. 58 Rio Grande No. Some other diesel locomotives (typically shunters) are available and operated in Sri Lanka other than the locomotives and shunters owned by Sri Lanka Railways. On a Garratt, the boiler could literally be dimensioned up to the full cross section of the loading gauge. From a total of 23 engines in March 1961, of which four were sub-shedded at Loerie, the number almost doubled to 43 by July. On display in good cosmetic condition, on loan from Sandstone Estates. [13] and included one locomotive experimentally converted to electric traction. Entered service in plain black livery in 1998, but was due for boiler recertification in 2009. NG113 and Hunslet-Taylor-built no. HAL6DTI - 135 hp. Now in service. It was sold to Rustenburg Platinum Mines in 1956 and became their no. Unlike other diesels purchased by the Ffestiniog Railway Company and named bilingually after Northern Welsh castles, 'Castell Caernarfon' is named in Welsh only. [citation needed]. [2], The Cockerill locomotives, numbers NG85 to NG88, remained in Natal for most of their service lives. The locomotive will be overhauled and re-gauged before entering service.[8]. 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. MV 401[hu] was a (1B)B locomotive in service between 19051969 and MV 651[hu] 0-6-6-0 until 1962. These ran mostly on 600mm (1ft11+58in) and 700mm (2ft3+916in) gauge networks. As of January 2023, No. Also common for many locomotives is a livery of horizontal bands of green, brown, and a yellow stripe.
