Caption - South African Railways (SAR) H2 class 4-8-2T no. 314 at Greyville depot in Durban during October 1968. Built by Dubs in Glasgow (4324/1903) as a 4-10-2T, the trailing set of driving wheels were later removed. The H2 tanks lasted until 1977 where they worked the Bluff at Durban docks where clearances were very limited. They also were used as depot pilots at Greyville until their withdrawal.
