DJH Model Loco PRE-OWNED South African Railways SAR Class 6J

SAR 4-6-0 Class 6J

History

The 6J can trace its lineage back to the original 6th Class designed by Locomotive Superintendent, M. Stephenson for fast passenger service on the Cape Government Railways. These locos were built by both American and British builders between 18993 and 1904. The 6J was a bar framed locomotive built by Neilson Reid and Co. and entered service in 1902. There were 14 locomotives in the class and were initially used on the Cape Main line. The locomotives used Stephensons valve gear and the last of the Class was withdrawn from service at Bethlehem in 1972.
