NS 2000 Atlantic

The NS 2000 was a British-built Dutch steam locomotive. 5 locomotives of the class were built by Beyer, Peacock, and Company in 1900, for mail services.

Technical Details
Due to the increase in the amount of mail traffic in the late 1890s, the Maatschappij tot Exploitatie van Staatsspoorwegen (SS) decided that they need more powerful locomotives for the job. The 5 locomotives of the class were built in 1900, by Beyer, Peacock, and Company in Manchester. They were the only Atlantic (4-4-2 wheel configuration) tender engines built for the Netherlands. Unfortunately, the the locomotives did not perform as expected, as it originally damaged the line between Vlissingen and Boxtel, by causing the nails in the sleepers to bend into an S-shape. Several changes were made to the locomotive throughout it's existence, however none of these changes improved the locomotives. Between 1926 and 1927, all members of the class were demoted to haul coal trains. All locomotives of the class were withdrawn by 1932. After withdrawal, No. 2005 (formerly SS No. 999) was turned into a resistance wagon, which lasted until 1955, when it was scrapped. Unfortunately, no locomotives of the class were preserved.
