====Narrow gauge====
In 1907 and 1910, the [[Tongaat]] Sugar Estates in [[KwaZulu-Natal|Natal]] acquired two 4-4-0 tank locomotives from [[WG Bagnall]] for their {{RailGauge|2ft}} gauge line. These locomotives had {{convert|9|x|14|inch|mm|0|adj=on}} cylinders. A further eleven similar locomotives, but with {{convert|10|x|15|inch|mm|0|adj=on}} cylinders, were delivered from the same manufacturer between 1926 and 1946. {{Citation needed|date=December 2012}}

In 1915, thirteen of the Beira Railway's retired narrow gauge Falcon F2 and F4 locomotives were acquired from Mozambique by the Union Defence Forces for use in [[South Africa]], where they replaced locomotives that had been commandeered for the war effort in [[German South West Africa]] during [[World War I]]. At the end of the war, the South African Railways stored them before returning them to service in 1921. When a system of grouping narrow gauge locomotives into classes was eventually introduced between 1928 and 1930, they were classified as [[South African Class NG6 4-4-0|class NG6]].<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Mardell"/>

In 1936, Bagnall built a single 4-4-0 tank locomotive, named ''Burnside'', with {{convert|11+1/2|by|15|inch|mm|0|abbr=off}} cylinders, for the {{convert|2|ft|0+1/2|in|mm|0|abbr=on}} gauge line of the Natal Estates sugar plantation at [[Mount Edgecombe]] in Natal.{{Citation needed|date=December 2012}}

====Standard gauge====

The third locomotive of the {{RailGauge|4ft8.5in|al=on|allk=on}} Natal Railway Company was delivered in January 1876, sixteen years after the opening of the railway. It was a 4-4-0 side tank engine, built by [[Kitson & Company]] and named [[Natal Railway 4-4-0T Perseverance|''Perseverance'']]. This was the last standard gauge locomotive to be obtained by the Natal Railway Company before the establishment of the [[Natal Government Railways]] in 1877 and the conversion from Standard gauge to {{RailGauge|Cape|allk=on}}.<ref name="Holland 1">{{Holland-Vol 1|pages=20–22, 25–26, 30–31, 35–39, 59-61, 76–77, 80–83, 106–108}}</ref><ref name="Mercury">''The Natal Mercury'' of 12 January 1876.</ref>

====Cape gauge====
[[File:Cape 1st Class (4-4-0T) 1875 no. 6.jpg|thumb|left|[[CGR 1st Class 4-4-0T|CGR 1st Class]] with optional tender]]
Seven side-tank locomotives were built for the [[Cape Government Railways]] (CGR) by [[Robert Stephenson & Company]] in 1875. Since they were found to be fast and reliable engines, four more were delivered in 1880, built by [[Neilson & Company]] and practically identical to the previous seven, but equipped with small optional four-wheeled water tenders. They were all designated [[CGR 1st Class 4-4-0T|1st Class]] when a locomotive classification system was introduced by the CGR.<ref name="Holland 1"/><ref name="Littley 2">''C.G.R. Numbering Revised'', Article by Dave Littley, SA Rail May–June 1993, pp. 94-95.</ref>

In 1879, the Cape Government Railways placed four [[CGR 1st Class 4-4-0|1st Class]] tender locomotives in service, built by the [[Avonside Engine Company]]. They were intended for fast passenger service on the Cape Western and Eastern systems and were followed by eleven more from Neilson & Company in 1880.<ref name="Holland 1"/><ref name="Littley 2"/>

In 1881, the CGR placed six more [[CGR 1st Class 4-4-0TT|1st Class]] tank-and-tender locomotives in service on its Cape Midland system. These were built by Neilson & Company as tender locomotives without on-board coal bunkers and with permanently attached coal and water tenders. Two of them became South African Railways class 01 in 1912.<ref name="Holland 1"/><ref name="Littley 2"/>

[[File:CGR 2nd Class (4-4-0T) of 1882 (Wynberg Tank).jpg|thumb|left|''Wynberg Tank'', c. 1882]]
Between 1882 and 1891, eleven {{nowrap|4-4-0T}} tank locomotives for the Wynberg suburban line in [[Cape Town]] were delivered to the CGR from Neilson and [[Dübs & Company]]. Designated [[CGR 2nd Class 4-4-0T|2nd Class]] and known as ''Wynberg Tanks'', ten of them became South African Railways class 02 in 1912.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Holland 1"/>

In 1882, two tank locomotives [[Kowie Railway 4-4-0T|named ''Grahamstown'' and ''Bathurst'']] entered passenger service on the private Kowie Railway between Grahamstown and Port Alfred, which was still under construction at the time.<ref name="Holland 1"/>

[[File:CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1883 no. M83 Sir Hercules.jpg|thumb|[[CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1883|CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0]] ''Sir Hercules'']]
Eighteen tender passenger locomotives were delivered to the CGR from Neilson & Company in 1883, designated [[CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1883|3rd Class]]. They were ordered for passenger service out of [[Cape Town]], [[East London, Eastern Cape|East London]] and [[Port Elizabeth]] respectively and were equipped with six-wheeled tenders.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Holland 1"/>

In 1884, the CGR placed two experimental [[CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1884|3rd Class]] tender locomotives in service, designed by the Cape Eastern System to be able to use the low-grade local coal with its high incombustible matter content.<ref name="Holland 1"/>

In 1889, the CGR placed 24 [[CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1889|3rd Class]] tender locomotives in service. They were the first stock locomotives to be built in quantity to detailed designs prepared in the [[Cape Colony|Cape of Good Hope]].<ref name="Holland 1"/>

[[File:CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1898.jpg|thumb|left|CGR 3rd Class ''Wynberg Tender'']]
In 1898, the CGR placed six [[CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1898|3rd Class ''Wynberg Tender'']] locomotives in passenger service on the suburban lines in Cape Town.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Holland 1"/>

In 1901, the CGR placed another six [[CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1901|3rd Class ''Wynberg Tender'']] locomotives in suburban service in Cape Town. They were a heavier and more powerful version of the locomotives of 1898 and were built for speed, with the largest coupled wheels of any locomotive on the CGR to date at {{convert|60|in|mm|abbr=off|sigfig=3}} diameter.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Holland 1"/>

In 1903, the CGR placed the last eight [[CGR 3rd Class 4-4-0 1903|3rd Class]] ''Wynberg Tenders'' in suburban service in Cape Town. While they appeared to be virtually identical to the locomotives of 1901 at first glance, they were heavier and more powerful.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Holland 1"/>
