Nord 2.451 to 2.631 were 0-4-2 locomotives for mixed traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord . The machines were retired from service from 1909 to 1923. [1]
The locomotive design was first put into service at the Chemins de Fer du Nord in 1867 and originated from a similar design which was built by Ernest Goüin in 1851 for the Lyon railways and reproduced in large numbers by the Chemins de fer de l'Est , Chemins de fer de l'Ouest and Chemins de fer de Paris à Lyon et à la Méditerranée . [2] [3]
The main difference to these older types was the arrangement of the rear axle, which was supported from the outside in order to leave as much space as possible for the firebox between the wheels. [2] The rest of the frame remained inside the driving wheels. The Stephenson valve gear and the cylinders were on the inside of the locomotive frame. The firebox was of the Crampton type, the boiler barrel consisted of three shells, with the middle one carrying the dome. [2] A Crampton regulator sat behind the chimney, with the steam pipes running down on the outside to the steam chest. The boiler pressure was 8.5 kg/cm2 (0.834 MPa; 121 psi) on the first and 10 and 11 kg/cm2 (0.981 and 1.08 MPa; 142 and 156 psi) on the later machines, with the earlier series later also receiving boilers for 10 kg/cm2 (0.981 MPa; 142 psi).

The Nord 2.451 to 2.631 locomotives were built by Société J. F. Cail & Cie and Fives-Lille from 1867 to 1883. [1]

The locomotives were coupled with 2 axle tenders, holding 7–8 m3 (247–283 cu ft) of water and 3 t (6,610 lb) of coal, and weighing 20–22 t (44,100–48,500 lb). [1]
The Belgian State Railways Type 23, later known as the NMBS/SNCB Type 53, was a class of 0-8-0T steam locomotives built between 1904 and 1927.
SNCF 232.P.1 was an experimental prototype high-pressure steam locomotive ordered by the Chemins de fer du Nord, but delivered to the Société nationale des chemins de fer français (SNCF) in 1939. It was the first and only member of SNCF's first class of 4-6-4 or Hudson type of locomotives.
The Société J.F Cail & Cie was founded in Paris on 6 June 1850 by Jean-François Cail (1804-1871). It was a French industrial company during the Second French Empire, whose activity was principally in sugar mills, railway locomotives and metal bridges.
Nord 3.401 à 3.512 were 0-6-0 locomotives for mixed traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord. The locomotive class served for more than 50 years, with the last locomotive, Nord 3.486, retiring in 1936.
Nord 3.021 to 3.075 were 0-6-4 tank locomotives for mixed traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord.
Est 441 to 485 was a class of 45 French 0-4-2 locomotives for mixed service, built in 1885 for the Chemins de fer de l'Est. They were the final development of the 0-4-2 locomotive in France.
Nord 4.001 to 4.075 and 4.636 to 4.990, also called 180 unités, were 0-8-0 locomotives for freight traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord.
The Nord 2.821 to 2.911 and 2.201 to 2.212, also referred to as Outrances, was a series of French 2-4-0 and 4-4-0 express passenger locomotives of the Chemins de Fer du Nord.
Est 501 to 562 was a class of 62 French 2-4-0 locomotives for express passenger service, built in 1878–1886 for the Chemins de fer de l'Est.
Nord 3.606 to 3.787 were 0-6-0 locomotives for mixed traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord. The machines were the continuation of the Nord 265 to 274 (3.265–3.274) Mammouth locomotives of 1849, and hence were also referred to by the same nickname. They were retired from service from 1910 until end of 1930.
Est 0.1 to 0.120 were 0-6-0 locomotives for mixed traffic of the Chemins de fer de l'Est. They were retired from service from 1891 until 1928.
Est 0.189 to 0.200 were 0-6-0 locomotives for freight traffic of the Chemins de fer de l'Est. They were put in service in 1857 and were retired until 1928.
The Est 0.250 to 0.500 and 0.701 to 0.766 were 0-6-0 locomotives for freight traffic of the Chemins de fer de l'Est. They were first put in service in 1859 and retired from service from 1892 until 1937.
Nord 401 to 436, renumbered to Nord 2.401 to 2.436 in 1872, were 0-4-6T Engerth locomotives for mixed traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord. The machines were built in 1856–1857 and retired from service in the early 1900s.
Nord 360 to 399, renumbered to Nord 4.361 to 4.400 in 1872, were 0-8-4T Engerth locomotives for freight traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord. The machines were built in 1856–1857 and retired from service in 1907–1910.
The Est 613 to 742 were 0-6-2T locomotives for suburban passenger traffic of the Chemins de fer de l'Est. They were first put in service in 1881.
Nord 2.311 to 2.380, were 4-4-0T locomotives for suburban passenger traffic of the Chemins de Fer du Nord. The machines were built in 1892–1893. They were nicknamed "Ravachol" because of the entry into service of the series when the latter was arrested in April 1892.
The Belgian State Railways Type 1 was a class of 2-4-0 steam locomotives for passenger service, introduced in 1864.
The Belgian State Railways Type 12 was a class of 2-4-2 steam locomotives for express passenger service, introduced in 1888. They were the successors of the Belgian State Railways Type 1 locomotives.
The Belgian State Railways Type 2 was a class of 0-6-0 steam locomotives for passenger service, introduced in 1875. Alfred Belpaire derived the locomotive design from the Type 28 by replacing the 1,450 mm (57.09 in) wheels of the Type 28 with larger 1,700 mm (66.93 in) diameter ones.
