South African Class C 4-6-0T

The South African Railways Class C 4-6-0T of 1879 is a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Natal Colony.
Between 1879 and 1885 the Natal Government Railways placed thirty-seven tank steam locomotives in service. Of these, the first seven were built as Mogul type locomotives and were subsequently modified to a wheel arrangement. They were designated Class G and in 1912, when fifteen of them were assimilated into the South African Railways, they were renumbered and reclassified to Class C.〔''The "K&S" Class Locomotives of the Natal Government Railways''. Conyngham, Ron V., RHG. Fish Hoek, 28 December 1995.〕〔Classification of S.A.R. Engines with Renumbering Lists, issued by the Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Office, Pretoria, January 1912, pp. 7, 13, 19 (Reprinted in April 1987 by SATS Museum, R.3125-6/9/11-1000)〕
==Origins==
When the Natal Government took over all the assets of the Natal Railway Company in 1875 and formed the Natal Government Railways (NGR), two important decisions were made. The first was to extend the tracks inland from Durban to Pietermaritzburg in order to open up the line into the interior, and to Verulam on the North Coast and Isipingo on the South Coast to serve the growing farming communities up and down the coast from Durban. The second was to convert the railway from Standard gauge to Cape gauge to conform to the gauge used by the Cape Government Railways. This decision to regauge was most likely brought about by the terrain that confronted the new railway in the Natal interior, that would demand heavy grades and tight curves.
The first Cape gauge locomotives of the NGR were seven Class K 2-6-0T locomotives that had been ordered from Beyer, Peacock and Company in 1877 to meet the expected traffic demands on these new lines. They were built to the same specifications as the engines Durban and Pietermaritzburg, a pair of locomotives built by Kitson and Company for Wythes and Jackson, the contractors who built the line between Durban and Pietermaritzburg.〔
