Remarks & Notes |
For obvious reasons this locomotive is known as The Red Devil. She was an experimental locomotive with a gas-producing firebox and a double Kylchap exhaust. She was more efficient than the Class 25NC from which she was rebuilt but she failed to save steam traction on the South African Railways. |
