Title:
SAR Class 19C 2439 (4-8-2)
Description:
In 1935 the South African Railways placed fifty Class 19C steam locomotives with a 4-8-2 Mountain wheel arrangement in service. They were built by North British Locomotive Company and were numbered in the range from 2435 to 2484. These locomotives were delivered with Watson Standard no. 1A boilers and used Rotary Cam Poppet valve gear. The Poppet valves made the Class 19C a very free-running locomotive, although it required special maintenance techniques.
