Vale of Neath Railway 0-6-0ST locomotives

Steam and Early Locomotives

Vale of Neath Railway 0-6-0ST locomotives were 0-6-0ST steam locomotives for working the heavy goods traffic on the Vale of Neath Railway and its associated lines in Wales. The first of 13 broad gauge locomotives entered service in 1854 and the last was withdrawn in 1886, and the remaining four were standard gauge locomotives. Three small-wheeled 4-4-0ST locomotives built by Robert Stephenson and Company in 1854 had all been rebuilt as 0-6-0STs by 1858, the last being withdrawn in 1880, while other broad gauge engines came from the Vulcan Foundry and from Slaughter, Gruning and Company. Of the four standard gauge 0-6-0T locomotives, two were built by Robert Stephenson and Company and two by the Vulcan Foundry. The railway was amalgamated into the Great Western Railway on 1 February 1865.
