KUR EA class

Steam and Early Locomotives

The KUR EA class, later known as the EAR 28 class, was a class of six 2-8-2 steam locomotives for the 1,000 mm gauge. All six were built in 1928 for the Kenya-Uganda Railway by Robert Stephenson and Company at Darlington, England, and they were later operated by the Kenya-Uganda Railway's successor, the East African Railways. Each member of the class carried a builder's number, a fleet number and an initial name, and the names were later removed. The class is covered in the rail transport histories of both Kenya and Uganda, the two countries the railway served.
