South African Railways narrow gauge Garratt steam locomotive class NGG 16 No 150 on an up goods train on the line from Donnybrook to Umzinto near Joliet, Natal Province, South Africa.
The final order for eight locomotives in 1967, were numbered from 149 to 156 and turned out to be the last new steam locomotives to be ordered by the SAR. Since no overseas manufacturers were available to supply them, they were locally built by Hunslet-Taylor in Germiston, Transvaal, using boilers supplied by their overseas principals, the Hunslet Engine Company. Built between 1967 and 1968, these locomotives had the same enlarged capacity front water bunker as that of the Tsumeb group, but their rear bunkers were identical to those of the 1951 batch of locomotives, carrying both coal and water.
