These locomotives had an enlarged front water tank capacity, but carried no water in their rear bunkers which consequently had a larger coal capacity. This was the last narrow gauge line left in Sri Lanka, and its conversion to broad gauge put the fleet of narrow gauge locomotives out of use. However this limited cater locomotives from SLR for some services. 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. Produced in the CPR's Angus shops, road numbers 1950 to 1954 were outshopped between 1909 and 1911. Purchased in 2014 from Exmoor Steam Railway by Steam Powered Services and currently owned by Peter Best. [5] Received negatively at first due to speed limitation arising from the short wheelbase and stiff suspension, it gained support during service, and it was soon followed by Baldwin examples, and then steadily heavier and more powerful successors. Norfolk & Western 2156 is the sole surviving Y6a, preserved at the National Museum of Transportation in St. Louis. [4], Throughout its history, Ceylon Government Railway had 410 steam locomotives. [, Entered service as "403". [1], Ejector pump efficiency depends on the length-to-diameter ratio of the exhaust chimney. Sixteen "Beyer-Garratt" locomotives of the 4-8-0 + 0-8-4 type are in service on the 5 ft. 6 in. 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.

Slightly shorter but even heavier and more powerful were 2-6-6-6s built by Lima for the C&O and the Virginian between 1941 and 1948, which weighed 778,000lb (353,000kg) and could produce up to 6,900 horsepower (5,100kW) at 45mph (72km/h). 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 last known fate of all the Class NG G16 locomotives, as of October 25th 2022, are shown in Table I. NG141 achieved a fuel saving of 25% compared to a standard Class NG G16 Garratt, a performance which was easily maintained in regular service. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". [3], Although they had already been ordered in 1914, production was disrupted by the First World War. Although compounds had been considered obsolescent since the 1920s, C&O thought them appropriate, in the late 1940s, for low-speed coal-mine pickup runs converging on the classification yard at Russell, Kentucky. [citation needed], The Sandstone Estates near Ficksburg in the Free State is home to a large number of Class NG G16 locomotives, either as the owners or as the custodian for locomotives belonging to individuals or other establishments. whilst the power units have been rebuilt at Dinas. 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. The truck could therefore turn into a curve and move to some extent laterally. NG140, is used as a source of spare parts while four locomotives, Cockerill-built no. [1], The second locomotive, the Hunslet-Taylor-built no. South African Railways and Harbours Narrow Gauge Locomotive Diagram Book, 2'0" Gauge, S.A.R. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". Hitachi Tourist excursion train. The Beyer-Garratt was particularly well-suited for rail lines of narrow gauge with lightly laid tracks because the weight of the locomotive was spread over a considerable distance. 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). 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.
