The South African Railways Class H 4-10-2T, introduced in 1899, was a steam locomotive from the pre-Union era in the Colony of Natal. Between 1899 and 1903 the Natal Government Railways placed 101 tank locomotives with a 4-10-2 wheel arrangement in service, the Class C Reid Tenwheelers, and in 1912, 93 that survived unmodified were designated Class H. Dubs and other Scottish builders merged to form the North British Locomotive Company while the locomotives were being built, so the last five were delivered as built by the new company. When some were moved to branch line and shunting service, they were modified to 4-8-2T engines by removing the fifth pair of coupled wheels.
