The Class 25NC is the non condensing version of the Class 25 condensing locomotive, of which ninety were placed in service at the same time.

SAR Class 26 3450 (4-8-4)
Description:
The Class 26, popularly known as the Red Devil, is a 4-8-4 steam locomotive that was rebuilt from a Class 25NC locomotive by mechanical engineer David Wardale from England while in the employ of the South African Railways. The rebuilding took place at the Salt River Works in Cape Town and was based on the principles developed by Argentinian mechanical engineer L.D. Porta. Work on Class 25NC number 3450 started at the end of 1979. These extensive modifications justified reclassification and the locomotive became the first and only Class 26, although the locomotive’s original Class 25NC running number 3450 was retained. The Red Devil’s great power, however, also turned out to be its one weakness. The Class 25NC had already proven to be on the slippery side and the much more powerful Class 26, with essentially still the same dimensions as the Class 25NC, was even worse. It was a poor performer at starting or at low speeds on steep gradients.

Description:
Between 1953 and 1955 the South African Railways placed ninety Class 25 condensing steam locomotives with a 4-8-4 Northern wheel arrangement in service. Henschel and Son built one locomotive complete with tender, number 3451, while North British Locomotive Company built the rest of the Class 25 locomotives, numbers 3452 to 3540. The Class 25NC is the non condensing version of the Class 25 condensing locomotive, of which fifty were placed in service at the same time. Between 1973 and 1980 all but three of the condensing locomotives were converted to non condensing and also classified as Class 25NC. In the process their condensing tenders were also rebuilt to ordinary coal-and-water tenders by removing the condensing radiators and roof fans and replacing it with a massive round-top water tank.

B&O 4-4-4-4 #5600 - Baltimore & Ohio
Description:
Being the only duplex drive locomotive B&O built and used, it has a special place in railroading history. Built by the B&O shops in May, 1938, it proved unsatisfactory for a number of reasons and was eventually pulled from service in 1943. B&O expressed no further interest in duplex drives as a result.

Title:
Ex-CSD 477.043 in the CD Muzeum
Description:
#477.043 is a CSD Class 477 4-8-4T, making it one of the only 4-8-4's built for use in Europe. That it's a tank makes it even more unusual, in addition to its three cylinders and Kylchap double-blastpipe chimney. However, the 477 "Papousek" (Parrot) Class numbered 60 units in its heyday. The 477's were built by CKD from 1951 (I don't have a final production year, but this one was built in 1954), and remained in CSD service until 1981, being some of the last mainline steam locomotives to operate on CSD. #477.043 had an even longer career, however, becoming an industrial locomotive at a power plant in Malesice, not making it into the museum's collection until 2000. They were primarily suburban or express passenger locomotives, in spite of their odd configuration, and could run at up to 100Km/h, although no faster, maybe because they were tank engines, and maybe because CSD simply didn't have very good track for high speed running. Power was 1595kW (2139 horsepower, although the museum rounds this to 2100). Service weight was 130 tonnes, which was above average both for a Czech tank engine and for a Czech locomotive generally. Today, #477.043 still runs, and can occasionally be seen on excursion trains, although on the day I visited the CD Muzeum it wasn't in steam. It's officially allocated to Louny, but again not everything is what it seems.

Heres one of several shots that I took of the turntable for the roundhouse. This head-on view is my favorite.
