The South African Railways Class A 4-8-2T of 1888 was a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Colony of Natal. In 1888, the Natal Government Railways placed the first five of its eventual one hundred Class D 4-8-2T steam locomotives in service. The last was delivered in 1899. They were the first locomotives in the world to be built with a 4-8-2 wheel arrangement, later to become known as the Mountain type. In 1912, when these locomotives were assimilated into the South African Railways, they were renumbered and designated Class A. In 1915, another two Class A locomotives were built from spare parts.

  • Die Fahrzeuge des Typs Dübs A der Natal Government Railways (NGR) waren Tenderlokomotiven mit der Achsfolge 2'D1'. Zwischen 1888 und 1899 lieferte der britische Hersteller Dübs and Company 100 Lokomotiven. Der Entwurf stammte von William Milne, dem leitenden Ingenieur der Bahn. Die Maschinen erhielten die Nummern 49–148 und wurden nach dem Hersteller bezeichnet (ein echtes Klassensystem gab es bei der NGR nicht). 1926 wurden 21 Exemplare in Schlepptenderlokomotiven umgebaut, wodurch die Klasse 17 entstand.
