The South African Railways Class 11 2-8-2 of 1904 was a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in Transvaal Colony. In 1904 the Central South African Railways placed 36 Class 11 locomotives with a 2-8-2 Mikado wheel arrangement in service, and when they were assimilated into the South African Railways in 1912 they were renumbered but kept their Class 11 classification. Built by the North British Locomotive Company, the class was designed for goods train service on the Reef by P.A. Hyde, the railway's chief locomotive superintendent from 1902 to 1904. They were later replaced by Mallet type locomotives on the heaviest coal workings, relegated to local work and shunting, and withdrawn from service in 1975.
