0-6-0 is the Whyte notation designation for steam locomotives with a wheel arrangement of no leading wheels, six powered and coupled driving wheels on three axles, and no trailing wheels. Historically, this was the most common wheel arrangement used on both tender and tank locomotives in versions with both inside and outside cylinders.
A Garratt locomotive is a type of steam locomotive invented by British engineer Herbert William Garratt that is articulated into three parts. Its boiler, firebox, and cab are mounted on a centre frame or "bridge". The two other parts, one at each end, have a pivot to support the central frame; they consist of a steam engine unit – with driving wheels, trailing wheels, valve gear, and cylinders, and above it, fuel and/or water storage.
Under the Whyte notation for the classification of steam locomotives, 0-4-2 represents the wheel arrangement with no leading wheels, four powered and coupled driving wheels on two axles and two trailing wheels on one axle. While the first locomotives of this wheel arrangement were tender engines, the configuration was later often used for tank engines, which is noted by adding letter suffixes to the configuration, such as 0-4-2T for a conventional side-tank locomotive, 0-4-2ST for a saddle-tank locomotive, 0-4-2WT for a well-tank locomotive and 0-4-2RT for a rack-equipped tank locomotive.
The NS 8800 was a series of tank engines of the Dutch railway NS for the shunting service. Of the approximately 324 British-built Hunslet Austerity C (0-6-0ST) saddle tank locomotives, many were used by the British War Department during their fight against the German army in mainland Western Europe. The NS bought 27 of them just after World War II. They had been built by the Hunslet Engine Company (12), WG Bagnall (3), Robert Stephenson & Hawthorns (RSH) (6), and Hudswell Clarke (6).
The DB Class V 51 and DB Class V 52 are classes of almost identical narrow gauge 4 axle diesel hydraulic locomotives built in 1964 for the Deutsche Bundesbahn, being built for 750 mm and 1,000 mm gauge lines respectively.
The Geldersche Stoomtramweg Maatschappij was a 750 mm gauge steam tram that operated over 56 kilometres (35 mi) between Arnhem, Doetinchem and Gendringen in the Netherlands, with a short section extending to Isselburg in Germany. It was built in 1881 and was closed around 1957. Several other tramways were amalgamated into the Geldersche Stoomtramweg Maatschappij. The Geldersch-Westfaalsche Stoomtram-Maatschappij was taken over in 1920, The Geldersch Overijsselsche Stoomtram Maatschappij, originally a 1,067 mm gauge line, was amalgamated in 1934, when the GOSM gauge was reduced to 750 mm. The Tramweg Maatschappij Zutphen-Emmerik was also taken over in 1934, and the Tramweg Maatschappij De Graafschap in 1939.
Afrikaanderwijk is a neighborhood of Rotterdam, Netherlands. It lies in the Feijenoord district of the city, and is traditionally a working-class neighborhood. The neighborhood was one of the first in the Netherlands to have a majority of residents with a foreign background, primarily consisting of Turks, Moroccans, Surinamese, and Antilleans.
The NZH Public Transport Museum is a museum in Haarlem, Netherlands, dedicated to promoting interest and conserving the bus and tram cultural heritage of Kennemerland. It is located behind the former bus depot of the "Noord-Zuid-Hollandsche Stoomtramweg-Maatschappij" (NZH), a bus and tram company.
The Hague Tram is a tram network forming part of the public transport system in and around the city of The Hague in South Holland, Netherlands.
The Rotterdam tramway network is a key element of the overall public transport arrangements in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Numerous industrial narrow-gauge lines were built for peat extraction, clay extraction for brickworks and construction sites. The dominant gauge for industrial lines was 700 mm, contrary to the 600 mm gauge used in neighbouring countries.
The NZASM 18 Tonner 0-6-0ST of 1890 was a South African steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in Transvaal.
The NZR Y class was a class of three 0-6-0T tank steam locomotives. Built by the Hunslet Engine Company for the Public Works Department in 1923, all three were sold to NZR between 1938 and 1945.
Locomotive 51 of the Limburgsche Tramweg Maatschappij was a Garratt locomotive. It was the only Garratt type locomotive in the Netherlands. The locomotive was designed for operation on the line Maastricht - Vaals, which required a locomotive with at least 5 coupled axles. A conventional locomotive of this size would experience too much rolling resistance in the many curves on this line, which were typical tramway curves of small radius.
Cöln-Frechener Strassenbahn BENZELRATH and MARIA were two locomotives built by Hohenzollern, serial number 846 and 933, in 1895 and 1896. Originally it was named Benzelrath, while later the numbers 4 and 5 were added. In 1904 the CFS was taken over by the Städtische Vorortbahnen Cöln and the units were renumbered 52 and 53. CFS Benzelrath's boiler construction was equal to CFS Maria, although it had different cylinder and wheel sizes. To assist in constructing the ZVTM tramway lines, H.J. te Siepe in Winterswijk purchased the locomotives in 1915. The name HENDRIK JAN and RIKA were added to its numbers. The ZVTM rented the locomotives in 1916, until in 1918 the locomotives were sold to brown coal operation Bergerode located in southern Limburg in The Netherlands. Its new owner renumbered the locomotives 39 and 38. In 1919 the locomotives were again sold for the purpose of line construction. This time to the CLS. The new number were 5 and 6. At the take-over of the CLS by the LTM the numbers did not change. In 1921 the locomotives were taken out of service and in 1924 it was scrapped.
Bonner Strassenbahn ROSWINDIS was a steam locomotive built by Hohenzollern in 1898. It was originally built for the Bonner Strassenbahn. It was bought for the construction of the MBS Nijmegen-Venlo line by C.P. Stuy in 1914.
VMH 1-4 was a series of locomotives built by Hohenzollern, with serial numbers 2835 to 2838, for the Stoomtramweg-Maatschappij Venlo – Maasbree – Helden (VMH) in 1911. They entered service in 1912, named VENLO, PANNINGEN, HELDEN, and MAASBREE.
J. Van Drongelen 1 was a locomotive built by Crenstein, serial number 6398, in 1914 for construction company J. Van Drongelen in Hoek. The locomotive was engaged in the construction of the Zeeuwsch-Vlaamsche Tramweg-Maatschappij (ZVTM) lines, until its sale in 1917 to the Centrale Limburgsche Spoorweg (CLS). It remained in service until 1921 and was sold in 1924.
Limburgsche Tramweg Maatschappij (LTM) 53 was a locomotive built by Krupp, serial number 737, in 1924. It entered service for Krupp factories in Essen in 1925. It was used as a plant switcher. The LTM purchased the locomotive in 1932, for coal service between Echt NS and Maasbracht Haven (harbour), which was operated by the LTM. This service terminated in 1936. Mining company Laura & Vereeninging purchased the locomotive in 1937, and it entered service with the name Julia III at mine Julia. In 1962 the identifier was changed in LV 11. In 1944 it was temporarily rented out to the Staatsmijnen (SM), for a few months. The SM had rented a C locomotive to the NS workshops in Maastricht and used this locomotive as a replacement.
The Jakarta tram system was a transport system in Jakarta, Indonesia. Its first-generation tram network first operated as a horse tram system, and was eventually converted to electric trams in the early twentieth century.
