A South African Railways brass bi-lingual CABSIDE NUMBERPLAT...
A South African Railways brass bi-lingual CABSIDE NUMBERPLATE “3410.25NC”. As carried by the SAR 3’6” gauge 25NC Class 4-8-4 built by the North British Locomotive’s Hyde Park Works as Works No. 27296 in 1953. The ultimate South African ‘rigid’ steam design, and arguably one of the most modern locomotives built in the UK, these non-condensing (NC) locomotives were on front line service on the heaviest mixed traffic trains for 40 years. A considerable number survive stored/preserved. A rare plate in Auction, in fine ex-loco condition.
