Namibian locomotive stamps from 1995

Marking the centenary of the Railways in what had previously been South West Africa, a German colony until 1919.

The top left 0-4-0 tank engine was the first locomotive used in the country, which was probably obtained from South Africa, then a German 2-8-0 tank engine top right. Bottom left is a 4-8-0 South African locomotive and then a pair of class 33.400 diesel-electrics used by Transnamib.
