The Sharp Stewart 0-8-2T locomotives were 0-8-2T steam tank locomotives designed and built by Sharp, Stewart and Company for the Port Talbot Railway and Docks Company in south Wales. Three were built in 1901 with works numbers 4794 to 4796, numbered 17 to 19, and they became Great Western Railway numbers 1358 to 1360. They were unusually large locomotives for their time and place, since most railways of South Wales relied on 0-6-2T tank locomotives. Number 1360 was withdrawn in November 1926 and 1359 in December 1935, while 1358 survived into British Railways ownership on 1 January 1948 and was withdrawn on 29 February 1948. All three were scrapped.
