Vulcan Foundry 2-6-2 no. 6-016 (works number 6276) seen near Kota Kinabalu airport on 15 May 2006. Three of these locos were built for the North Borneo Railway in 1955, the last steam locos built by Vulcan Foundry. Their design was based on the YD class 2-8-2's built by Vulcan Foundry a few years earlier for the Burma Railway. All of Malaysia's 1,700 km system is metre gauge. (James Waite)
