Description:
Kaiping colliery locomotive No.2 with European staff members of the Chinese Engineering and Mining Company colliery. Locomotives Nos. 2 and 3 were purchased in 1882 from Robert Stephenson & Co. of Newcastle in England (builder’s Ns. 2397 and 2398 of 1881). These were the first standard-gauge locomotives imported into China. The tank engines have an unusual “Ogee” shaped saddle tank.
