Australia's [[South Australian Railways D class|first 4-4-0 locomotives]] were introduced by the [[South Australian Railways]] in 1859. From that initial order for two locomotives, the numbers of this wheel arrangement multiplied and eventually appeared in most of the Australian colonies. Tender, tank and saddle tank versions, varying in size from small locomotives to express passenger racers with {{convert|6|ft|6|in|mm|0|abbr=off|comma=off}} driving wheels, worked in [[Victoria (Australia)|Victoria]], [[New South Wales]], [[Western Australia]] and [[Tasmania]] on {{Track gauge|1067mm|comma=off}}, {{Track gauge|1435mm|comma=off}} and 
{{Track gauge|1600mm|comma=off}} gauge.<ref name="Oberg">Oberg, Leon. (1975). ''Locomotives of Australia''. Sydney, London: Reed.</ref>

The locomotives originally came from British builders such as [[Dübs & Company]] and [[Beyer, Peacock & Company]]; however, from the late 1870s into the 1880s, railways also bought locomotives from American builders, mostly from Baldwin, and a few from the [[Rogers Locomotive & Machine Works]] in [[New Jersey]].  From the 1880s onward, local firms such as [[James Martin & Co]]. in [[Gawler, South Australia]], and the [[Phoenix Foundry]] in [[Ballarat]], Victoria would also build them. In New South Wales and Victoria, the 4-4-0 were predominant for mainline passenger services until the early 1900s. In Western Australia, some were later converted to a {{whyte|4-4-2}} wheel arrangement.<ref>Australian Railway Historical Society,'' A Century Plus of Locomotives'' ''New South Wales Railways 1855-1965'', ARHS, Sydney, 1965</ref><ref>Victorian Railways, ''Power Parade: 1854-1954'', Victorian Railways, 1954</ref>

===Finland===
[[File:BaldwinHH.jpg|thumb|Finnish Class A4 locomotive of 1872]]
In Finland, the 4-4-0 was represented by the Classes A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6 and A7.
* The Class A4 was a class of nine locomotives, built in 1872 and 1873 by the [[Baldwin Locomotive Works]] for use on the [[Hanko–Hyvinkää railway]].
* The [[Finnish Steam Locomotive Class A5]] was a class of only two locomotives, built in 1874 and 1875 by the [[Finland|Finnish]] State Railroad's workshops in [[Helsinki]]. One of them is preserved at the [[Finnish Railway Museum]].

The 4-4-0 two [[Compound locomotive|cylinder compound]] tender locomotives began to set its step on [[Java]] in 1900s. The ''[[Staatsspoorwegen]]'' (SS) ordered 44 of these from 3 different manufacturers, they were from [[Hanomag]], [[Sächsische Maschinenfabrik|Sächsische Maschinenfabrik (Hartmann)]] and [[Werkspoor]] and they were imported in 1900–1910. 
[[File:Preparing (18859888609).jpg|thumb|B51 12 is preparing for steam]]
After they had already arrived in Java, they were classified as SS Class 600 with 1,503 mm driving wheels which way much bigger than any operational SS locomotives at the time and used as the main workhorse for express trains. The SS 600s could be found hauling local trains in [[Tanah Abang railway station|Tanah Abang–]][[Rangkasbitung railway station|Rangkasbitung–]][[Merak railway station|Merak]]/Labuan, [[Madiun railway station|Madiun]]–[[Kertosono railway station|Kertosono]][[Madiun railway station|–]][[Blitar railway station|Blitar]] and Babat–[[Jombang railway station|Jombang]] lines. Some of them were also found in Maos–[[Kroya railway station|Kroya–]][[Kutoarjo]] and [[Surabaya Kota railway station|Surabaya]]–[[Pasuruan railway station|Pasuruan]] lines. Then, the SS sent their five SS 600s to [[South Sumatra]] due to the increasing needs of railway transport in there. These locomotives were withdrawn from active service momentarily in 1929-1934 during [[Great Depression|great depression]] because of their cylinder compound technology which has a complicated mechanism system so the SS had to save its budget by preserving these locomotives, but they received extensive maintenance so they still could be used normally.

During [[Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies|Japanese occupation]] in 1942, all of private/state railway companies of the Dutch East Indies (now [[Indonesia]]) were renumbered based on [[Japan Railways locomotive numbering and classification|Japanese numberings]], without exception to SS Class 600s were renumbered to B51 and it still used after [[Indonesian Independence]] with their ''Djawatan Kereta Api'' (DKA) or Department of Railways of the Republic of Indonesia up to now. One unit of B51 was sent out again to [[West Sumatra]] to serve coal train transport in Muaro–[[Pekanbaru]] line till it closed in September, 1945. From 44 locomotives, only B51 12 (ex-SS 612) of [[Hanomag]] is preserved. Previously, B51 12 was a yard shunter of [[Bojonegoro railway station]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Plumb |first=Geoff |title=Java 1973 |url=https://plumbloco.smugmug.com/Trains/Java-1973/i-dZtVwVV/A |website=SmugMug}}</ref> The B51 12 was once a static display for more than 30 years at [[Ambarawa Railway Museum]], before finally fully restored in 2012 to haul the Ambarawa [[excursion train]] for Ambarawa–Tuntang line beside the [[Maschinenfabrik Esslingen|Esslingen]] {{whyte|0-4-2|T}} B25 02 and 03 which were used on [[rack railway|rack line]] between Jambu–Bedono.

[[File:Beira Ry BR7 (4-4-0) SAR Class NG6 b.JPG|thumb|left|Restored [[South African Class NG6 4-4-0|Beira Railway Falcon F2]]]]
Between 1895 and 1898, [[Pauling & Company]] placed 42 [[South African Class NG6 4-4-0|Falcon F2 and F4]] 4-4-0 tender locomotives in service on the {{RailGauge|2ft}} [[narrow gauge]] railway which was being constructed for the Beira Railway in [[Mozambique]]. They were supplied in six batches by [[Brush Traction|Falcon Engine & Car Works]] in England and the [[Dugald Drummond|Glasgow Railway Engineering Company]] in Scotland.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne">{{Paxton-Bourne|pages=15-18, 103-104}}</ref><ref name="Enigma">Baxter, Antony.

Sable Publishing House. {{ISBN|0-9549488-1-5}}</ref>

In service, these locomotives were nicknamed ''Lawleys'' after the Beira Railway construction subcontractor. The construction of the last batch of ten F4 locomotives was subcontracted by Falcon to the Glasgow Railway Engineering Company in Scotland and these were consequently often referred to as the ''Drummond F4''.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Enigma"/><ref name="Pattison 2"/><ref name="Mardell">Railway Modelling Scene, South Africa, May/June 1985, article written by Neill Mardell</ref>

The Falcon F4 was larger and heavier than the earlier F2, with a tractive effort that was increased from the {{convert|3000|lbf|kN|1|abbr=off}} of the F2 to {{convert|3987|lbf|kN|1|abbr=off}} at 75% boiler pressure. It could haul {{convert|180|LT|t|1|abbr=off}} up the ruling gradients, compared to the {{convert|160|LT|t|1|abbr=off}} that the F2 could manage.<ref name="Enigma"/>

===New Zealand===
The [[NZR LA class|NZR L<sup>A</sup> class]] tank locomotives of 1887 were built in Britain by [[Nasmyth, Gaskell & Company|Nasmyth, Wilson & Company]] in 1887 for the [[New Zealand Midland Railway Company]]. They were taken over by the [[New Zealand Railways Department]] in 1900, when the government acquired the incomplete [[Midland Line, New Zealand|Midland line]].

===Rhodesia===
When the Beira Railway in Mozambique was regauged to {{RailGauge|3ft6in|allk=on}} by 1900 and the whole [[South African Class NG6 4-4-0|4-4-0 Lawley]] locomotive fleet was staged, six of the Mozambican F4 locomotives were acquired by the Ayrshire Railway, which was then under construction in Southern Rhodesia. They remained in service there until 1914, when this line was also converted to Cape gauge and became the [[Chinhoyi|Sinoia]] branch of the Beira, Mashonaland and Rhodesia Railway.<ref name="Paxton-Bourne"/><ref name="Enigma"/><ref name="Mardell"/>

====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}}

[[File:SAR Class NG6 106 (4-4-0) b.jpg|thumb|[[South African Class NG6 4-4-0|South African Railways class NG6]] no. 106]]
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>

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 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"/>

===United Kingdom===
====Tank locomotives====
[[File:GWR bogie class Horace.jpg|thumb|[[GWR Bogie Class|''Bogie'' class]] 4-4-0ST ''Horace'' of 1854]]
4-4-0T classes began to appear on {{RailGauge|7ft0.25in}} broad-gauge lines in the United Kingdom from 1849. The Great Western Railway built its [[GWR Bogie Class|''Bogie'' class]] saddle tanks for the [[South Devon Railway Company|South Devon Railway]] in 1849, and others for its own use during 1854 and 1855. Between 1851 and 1876, the South Devon Railway acquired a further six [[South Devon Railway locomotives|saddle tank classes]], and the [[Vale of Neath Railway]] a [[Vale of Neath Railway 4-4-0ST locomotives|further nine.]] The [[Bristol and Exeter Railway]] introduced several [[Bristol and Exeter Railway 4-4-0ST locomotives|4-4-0ST classes]] after 1855.<ref>{{RCTS-LocosGWR-2|pages=B21–B23}}</ref>

[[William Adams (locomotive engineer)|William Adams]] built a series of standard gauge [[Locomotives of the London and North Western Railway#Locomotives of the North London Railway|4-4-0T]] classes for the [[North London Railway]] between 1863 and 1876. He went on to build the [[LSWR 46 Class]] for the [[London and South Western Railway]] in 1879. Other British 4-4-0T types included the [[Metropolitan Railway A Class|A Class]] of the [[Metropolitan Railway]], built by Beyer, Peacock & Company from 1864, and the [[Highland Railway O Class]] of 1878 and [[Highland Railway P class|P class]] of 1893–94. Also in 1864, [[John Lambie (engineer)|John Lambie]] of the [[Caledonian Railway]] built twelve Class 1 4-4-0T locomotives.

====Inside cylinder tender locomotives====
[[File:LBSCR B4 class.jpg|thumb|A [[LB&SCR B4 class]] c.1910 typical of the British inside frame/inside cylinder layout]]
Between 1876 and 1903, [[Samuel Waite Johnson|Samuel Johnson]] of the [[Midland Railway]] built 350 inside cylinder tender locomotives to various designs, notably the [[Midland Railway 483 Class]]. The type was particularly refined by [[John F. McIntosh]] of the [[Caledonian Railway]] with his [[Caledonian Railway 721 Class|''Dunalastair'']] and ''Breadalbane'' classes of 1896 to 1898. In addition, [[Wilson Worsdell]] of the [[North Eastern Railway (United Kingdom)|North Eastern Railway]] designed six classes between 1896 and 1909. Other notable classes included the [[London and South Western Railway]]’s [[LSWR T9 class|T9 class]] of 1899 and the [[London and North Western Railway]]’s [[LNWR Whale Precursor Class|''Precursor'' Class]] of 1904.<ref name="Poultney"/>

From the mid-1890s until after [[World War I]], the inside cylinder 4-4-0 was the standard type for British [[Express train|Express passenger trains]], although several classes were also used in [[mixed-traffic locomotive|mixed-traffic]] service in later years.<ref name="Poultney"/>

[[File:City of Truro 3717 Didcot (6).jpg|thumb|left|[[GWR 3700 Class 3440 City of Truro|''City of Truro'']]]]
The [[Great Western Railway]] (GWR) preferred to retain [[Locomotive frame|outside frames]] on their inside cylinder 4-4-0s. One member of its [[GWR 3700 Class|''City'' class]], the [[GWR 3700 Class 3440 City of Truro|''City of Truro'']], designed by [[George Jackson Churchward]] and built at the GWR's [[Swindon Works]] in 1903, was reputedly the first steam locomotive in Europe to travel in excess of {{convert|100|mph|km/h|abbr=off}}, reaching a speed of {{convert|102.3|mph|km/h|abbr=off}} on 9 May 1904 while hauling the ''Ocean Mails'' special from [[Plymouth railway station|Plymouth]] to [[Paddington railway station|London Paddington]].

Although the inside cylinder 4-4-0 had largely been superseded by larger locomotives for mainline express trains by 1920, the type remained in use in Scotland and East Anglia, where lines that could not support heavier or larger locomotives were common. Thus both the [[Great Eastern Railway]]’s [[GER Classes S46, D56 and H88|''Claud Hamilton'']] classes of 1900 to 1911 and the [[Great Central Railway]]’s [[GCR Class 11F|''Director'']] classes of 1920 were perpetuated by the [[London and North Eastern Railway]] in 1923. Until 1932, the [[London, Midland and Scottish Railway]] also continued to build its [[LMS Class 2P 4-4-0|Class 2P]] of traditional inside cylinder {{nowrap|4-4-0s}} for secondary passenger working.

====Three-cylinder tender locomotives====
[[File:440locomotivestowe.jpg|thumb|Southern Railway ''Schools'' class ''Stowe'', constructed in 1934]]
Experiments were conducted with three-cylinder [[compound locomotive]]s by Wilson Worsdell of the North Eastern Railway in 1898, [[Samuel Waite Johnson|Samuel Johnson]] of the [[Midland Railway]] in 1901 and [[Francis Webb (engineer)|Francis Webb]] of the [[London and North Western Railway]]. Of these, the development of Johnson's design by [[Richard Deeley]] of the Midland Railway into the [[Midland Railway 1000 Class|1000 Class]] was the most successful. This class continued to be built by the [[London, Midland and Scottish Railway]] (LMS) after 1905, until 1932 with the almost identical [[LMS Compound 4-4-0]].

British three-cylinder simple expansion (simplex) locomotives included [[Nigel Gresley]]'s [[LNER Class D49]] ''Hunt'' and ''Shire'' 4-4-0s of 1927–28. However, the most powerful and one of the most successful 4-4-0 designs ever constructed was the [[SR V class|''Schools'' class]] of the [[Southern Railway (UK)|Southern Railway]], designed by [[Richard Maunsell]] and built between 1930 and 1935. These were used on secondary express trains between London and South Coast towns, until their withdrawal in 1962.<ref name="Maunsell">{{Cite web |url=http://www.maunsell.org.uk/virtual%20shed/928/928profile.htm |title=Maunsell Railway Society {{nowrap|4-4-0}} locomotive "Stowe" |access-date=2006-02-18 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160322133854/http://www.maunsell.org.uk/virtual%20shed/928/928profile.htm |archive-date=2016-03-22 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

===United States===
[[File:Old 4-4-0.jpg|thumb|[[Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio Railroad|AM&O]] no. 87, delivered on flatcars due to breaks-of-gauge]]
Since the first locomotives in the United States were imported from the United Kingdom, the British {{RailGauge|4ft8.5in|al=on|allk=on}} was also adopted by the first United States railroads. When new locomotive construction began in the United States in 1831, some new railroads opted for a different gauge, resulting in [[Break-of-gauge|breaks-of-gauge]] as railroads began to be joined. Apart from freight reloading issues, another result was that new locomotives for some of these railroads had to be delivered on flatcars.

The 4-4-0 played a major role in the development of rail transport in the United States. Some of the notable 4-4-0 locomotives that saw service on United States railroads are:

[[File:Roy O Disney on track.jpg|thumb|left|WDWRR {{nowrap|4-4-0}} No. 4 ''Roy O. Disney'', built in 1916]]

By 1910, the 4-4-0 was considered obsolete being replaced by Mikados, Pacifics and other larger engines, although they continued to serve to an extent into the 1950s. The last 4-4-0 to be built was a diminutive Baldwin product for the Ferrocarriles Unidos de Yucatán in 1945. Fewer than forty 4-4-0s survive in preservation in the United States, reproductions excluded.<ref name="White"/>

Between 1959 and 1989, the [[Crown Metal Products]] Company of Wyano, Pennsylvania built [[live steam]] reproductions of classic 4-4-0 designs for use by [[amusement park]]s. The largest of these, of which 18 were produced, ran on {{RailGauge|3ft}} [[narrow gauge railways|narrow gauge]] [[rail tracks|track]]. Most are patterned after 19th-century American designs, but those produced for [[Busch Gardens]] have European styling. Although Crown Metal Products ceased operations in 1989, many of their locomotives continue to see daily operation at parks such as [[Kings Island]], [[Worlds of Fun]], and the [[Omaha Zoo Railroad]] at Omaha's [[Henry Doorly Zoo & Aquarium]].
