The NZR G class was a type of Garratt steam locomotive used in New Zealand, the only such Garratt type steam locomotives ever used by the New Zealand Railways (NZR). They were ordered to deal with traffic growth over the heavy gradients of the North Island Main Trunk (NIMT) and to do away with the use of banking engines on steep grades. They were one of the few Garratt designs to employ six cylinders. A mechanical stoker was used to feed coal into the locomotive.

  • Die 1928 gebauten Fahrzeuge der Klasse G der Neuseeländischen Staatsbahn (New Zealand Government Railways, NZR) waren Dampflokomotiven der Bauart Garratt. Sie waren die ersten und einzigen Garratt-Lokomotiven, die in Neuseeland eingesetzt wurden, und auch die größten je für dieses Land gebauten Lokomotiven. Sie konnten jedoch nicht überzeugen und wurden schon nach wenigen Jahren aus dem Dienst genommen. Aus den Triebgestellen der drei Lokomotiven entstanden 1937 sechs konventionelle Lokomotiven, die ebenfalls als Klasse G bezeichnet wurden. (de)
