narrow gauge garratt locomotives

These three locomotives were not superheated. 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. Not in use. 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)). In terms of a prior agreement between the SAR and the Tsumeb Copper Corporation, the SAR would purchase any narrow gauge locomotives that would become redundant should the re-gauging of the SWA system take place. [4] [14] The improvement in performance and economy of the locomotive was brought about by the higher grate limit by means of the GPCS and better flow past the improved valves, valve motion and exhaust. Ex South African Railways NG15 Class Unrestored. Imported in two variants, one for run on commuter services and other run on long distance services. [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. 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). They were the first Garratt locomotives to enter service in South Africa. 227, Lake County Historical Society Steam Locomotive No. [5], The Railways upgraded its service to diesel locomotives, under the leadership of B. D. Rampala in the mid 1950s. [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. [11], The two locomotives of the second order also served in Natal, ending up working on the branch from Estcourt to Weenen.

NG52 still exists. Power outputs of over 700 indicated horsepower was achieved and the locomotive was probably capable of achieving a maximum of 800 indicated horsepower, some 25% more than the Class 91-000 narrow gauge diesel-electric locomotive. WO6E1- 120 hp In Canada, the Canadian Pacific Railway experimented with an unusual design of Mallet promoted by H.H. Scrapped at Paddock, South Africa October 2017. [8][11][12], No's 141 & 155 climbing from Bongwana to Nqabeni, c. 1992, South African Railways and Harbours Locomotive Diagram Book, 2'0" & 3'6" Gauge Steam Locomotives, 15 August 1941, as amended, Last edited on 11 December 2022, at 01:37, "Alfred County Railway 2-6-2+2-6-2 NG G16A Garratts 141 & 155", "The Ultimate Steam Page P.

Underwent a major restoration at Boston Lodge Works. It initially remained there after the trials, while the other two went to the Stuartstown line in Natal, to be joined there by no. This then was what became understood as a "Mallet" locomotive: an articulated locomotive in which the rear set of driving wheels were fixed in the main frame of the locomotive; an articulated truck carrying a second set of driving wheels; and compounding in which the high-pressure cylinders drove the axles on the main frame and the articulated axles were driven by low-pressure steam. Garratt locomotives have two well spaced bogies on which are mounted the water . The model represents the Garratt locomotives presently running on the Welsh Highland Railway. Beyer, Peacock and Company was only able to deliver the first three locomotives in 1919 after cessation of hostilities. Both modified locomotives were reclassified to Class NG G16A. (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 . but they are still an impressive piece of machinery. 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. In 2010, the carriage was named 'Glaslyn' by Queen Elizabeth II at a ceremony at Dinas station. Transferred Dinas, in August 1997 for use on reconstruction work. Produced in the CPR's Angus shops, road numbers 1950 to 1954 were outshopped between 1909 and 1911. Locomotive has the NGG16A boiler unit but carried the standard British built unmodified power units off 142. 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. NG113 and Hunslet-Taylor-built no. On postage stamps, for example, it was "Zuid Afrika" from 1913, "Suidafrika" from the airmail stamps of 1925 and hyphenated "Suid-Afrika" from 1933. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". Most narrow gauge Garratt classes seem to have had lower axle loadings than this, though South Africa and the then-British colonies of East Africa had very big power on 3'6" and meter-gauge track. Note piston valves on high-pressure cylinders and slide valves on low-pressure cylinders. The South African Railways Class NG G11 2-6-0+0-6-2 of 1919 was a narrow gauge steam locomotive. 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. D&RGW Railroad Steam Locomotive No. In 1989 and 1990 two of these locomotives were rebuilt to Class NG G16A by the Alfred County Railway. Another De Winton is on display in the entrance to the WHR Caernarfon Station. Beyer-Peacock had stopped building steam locomotives after the last batch of Class NG G16 in 1958 and by 1968 they were in the process of closing the business altogether. 6 and 7). 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. 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. 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. [2][3][4][5], The locomotives were superheated, with a superheater area of 14.9 square metres (160 square feet) and fifteen elements of 38 millimetres (1.5 inches) outside diameter and a 31 millimetres (1.2 inches) bore. Another 2 WDG4D locomotives are to be arrived. This saw its first operation in Europe in 2011 and after initial trials on the owners' railway, was transferred to the Welsh Highland Railway as its power is better suited to that railway. Moreover, there were adhesion stability problems where the front engine tended to slip and then stall uncontrollably because of an imbalance of tractive effort and axle load, accentuated by the drawbar reaction, and inability of the intermediate steam receiver to accommodate the sudden pressure change. Similar to Carriage 2010.The first coach built for the Caernarfon service, delivered to. [, Entered service as "409". Note the clear exhausts in the picture below of numbers 141 and 155 double-heading on the climb from Bongwana to Nqabeni. Various other liveries also exist. 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. gauge lines of the Bengal Nagpur Railway in India. [2][9][10], The first three locomotives were all working in Natal soon after entering service. The locomotive has a Gardner 8LW diesel engine de-rated to 132hp. [citation needed]. 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. 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. 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. Ex-Chattenden and Upnor Railway coach acquired for the WHR from the South Tynedale Railway and regauged from 2ft 6in gauge. The locomotive will be overhauled and re-gauged before entering service.[8]. Heated and double glazed. 486 Rio Grande No. But unlike the CC 50 class, all of the CC 10s & DD 50 -52s was sadly cut up for scrap. 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). The mill gave it the number 9 and used it to work sugar cane wagons in Innisfail district of Far North Queensland. 141 in 1989. Funded by WHR Society. All operational locomotives in the country today are broad gauge. Only 3 CC50 engines survived. [, Entered service as "408". One of the examples in Germany was the class of 0-8-8-0Ts built by Maffei for Bavarian State Railways between 1913 and 1923. Chesapeake & Ohio 2-6-6-2 #1309, the last domestic steam locomotive built by Baldwin, was scheduled for restoration in September 2017. 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. [, Entered service as "401". 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. These are Cockerill-built no. Narrow Gauge Garratt locomotives Herbert Garratt - and his Sandstone locomotives An iconic Sandstone scene. Almost identical to, A small Simplex locomotive loaned to the WHR by Innogy that has been used on construction trains, particularly on the. [1][2][3], The system of grouping narrow-gauge locomotives into classes was only adopted by the SAR somewhere between 1928 and 1930. 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. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". [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. Only Garratt to get to Quorn [, Worked to Broken Hill. Built by Societe Franco-Belge builders No.2973, Beyer Peacock builders No.7622. In the UK, Bagnalls built a number of 'Modified Meyers' for the narrow gauge, the last of them, 'Monarch' (762mm, 2' 6" gauge), is preserved on the Welshpool and Llanfair Railway in Wales, James Waite photographed it on display at Welshpool in September 2009. . It was to become the first Garratt to enter SAR service. [1] In 1953, Sri Lanka Railways enhanced its service to more power with diesel locomotives. [1], The second locomotive, the Hunslet-Taylor-built no. The original source of information for this table was the: "Rheilffordd Eryri - Welsh Highland Railway Traveller's Guide" published by the Ffestiniog Railway Company in 2002. No 23 returned to FR service in 1955 and full doors fitted in 1966. Out of service waiting for a general overhaul and replacement boiler (September 2022). Typically the support bearing was placed beneath the smokebox, hollowed and with a sliding seal to provide a route for exhaust steam from the low-pressure cylinders to discharge through a blastpipe within the smoke box. 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. Re-entered service in 2010 in crimson lake livery. Arrived on the WHR 18 February 2010. Although less obvious, both Wardale GPCS locomotives, Class 19D no. Purchased in 2014 from Exmoor Steam Railway by Steam Powered Services and currently owned by Peter Best. His patent 162876 in France specified four cylinders, two large and two small, with one pair of cylinders acting on two or three fixed axles, and the other pair acting on axles mounted in a swivelling truck.[3]. 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). Several Mallets have been preserved, some in operational condition. 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. 30 of MV 422[hu] 0-4-4-0 were built between 18981902 (the last one served until 1958). Owned by Transnet Heritage Trust. G41 was put to work on the Colac to Beach Forest and Crowes line in the states (Victoria) south-west. Purchased in summer 2009 for use on works trains from a private buyer. [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 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. The new locomotives were therefore delivered directly to the SAR in 1958. The BlonayChamby museum railway has two Mallets. In Port Elizabeth, they were employed on shed and yard duty and on transfer trips to and from the docks until, after the arrival of the Class 91-000 diesel-electric locomotives in 1973, they were withdrawn from service in October 1974. No. [1][2], Altogether 34 Class NG G16 2-6-2+2-6-2 locomotives were built for the South African Railways (SAR) between 1937 and 1968. The following locomotives are normally Ffestiniog Railway stock that have run on the WHR. [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. ABPF-SC (Brazilian Association for Railroad Preservation Santa Catarina branch) has restored a 2-6-6-2 Mallet to working order. Darjeeling Himalayan Railway D Class Beyer-Garratt [2] Since then, various types of diesel locomotives were added to the service. Back in operation by April 2019 after a boiler retube. The weight of the front part of the boiler was to be supported on an arc-shaped radial bearing. [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. Explore. Overhaul to operating condition stopped due to several factors. This created the risk of the locomotive tilting over on tight curves. Arrived ex ship "Belnor". Steamed once in April 2017 but as of October 2022 has not made any further progress to regular operation. [16], Another industrial type has been purchased and restored by the Statfold Barn Railway in the UK. Several units out of service shortly after introduction due to cost of spares and repair. NG55, 4 June 2005, NG G11 no. They were numbered in the range from NG109 to NG116. In 2004 the locomotive was purchased by a member of the Lynton & Barnstaple Trust, who shipped it from Australia in 2005. It hauls tourist steam trains on 3% grades. 15) and Beyer, Peacock & Company (nos. On this Wikipedia the language links are at the top of the page across from the article title. Several others followed for railways in mainland Europe. Not in use. First to be acquired was the Hanomag G 2x 3/3 0-6-6-0 No104. [citation needed]. A third stage (triple expansion) may be employed. Mallets were employed in Brazilian 1,000mm (3ft3+38in) metre gauge, tight-radius railroads. A replica of an 1894 "Ashbury" NWNGR "Summer Coach". [2], The Cockerill locomotives, numbers NG85 to NG88, remained in Natal for most of their service lives. NG141 achieved a fuel saving of 25% compared to a standard Class NG G16 Garratt, a performance which was easily maintained in regular service. Extensive gallery of narrow gauge railway photos. As a result, no NG51 was officially retired by July 1962. [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. Specifications: Scale: 1:19; Dual gauge: 32/45mm Bought by the Ffestiniog Railway in 1981 and re-gauged, it was re-bodied and overhauled at Boston Lodge in 1986 and frequently used on 'pull and push' trains. Currently used as a mess coach on construction trains and as a reserve passenger brake vehicle. On loan to Statfold Barn Railway. The cabs of the second order locomotives were also improved to offer better protection to the crew. A number of Mallets were constructed for the Nordhausen Wernigerode Eisenbahn, now part of the Harz Narrow Gauge Railways system in Germany. As of January 2023, No. Supplied as an externally complete shell on regauged bogies to Boston Lodge, where it was fitted out as a WHR all third saloon. This type is generally regarded as the largest steam locomotive in the world. Locomotive Wiki.
