===Bechuanaland=== In 1897, four Cape 7th Class {{nowrap|4-8-0}} locomotives were ordered by the Cape Government Railways (CGR) from [[Neilson and Company]] for use on the new [[Vryburg]] to [[Bulawayo]] line of the fledgling Bechuanaland Railway Company (BR). The line through [[Bechuanaland Protectorate]] was still under construction and was operated by the CGR on behalf of the BR at the time. The locomotives were eventually returned to the CGR and were designated [[South African Class 7A 4-8-0|Class 7A]] on the South African Railways in 1912.<ref name="Holland 1">{{Holland-Vol 1|pages=40β44, 56, 61β64, 67, 72, 78β80, 99β101, 105, 122β128, 134β135}}</ref><ref name="Pattison 1">{{Pattison-Seventh|pages=3-16, 38β39, 48β50}}</ref>
