Rhodesia Railways class DE2 are a type of diesel locomotive built for operations on Rhodesia Railways in the 1950s.

The first DE2, number 1200, entered service on 22 June 1955. Two batches were built by English Electric: numbers 1200 to 1222 by the Dick, Kerr Works in Preston, and 1223–1234 by the Vulcan Foundry, Newton-le-Willows in 1958.

Power plant

The power plant (diesel engine) originally fitted was the EE 16SVT. This was rated {{convert|2000|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} at sea level but the service rating (allowing for altitude and

climatic conditions) was {{convert|1710|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}}.[1] Eight locomotives were later fitted with ex-BR Class 40 V16 engines.

Preservation

Class leader 1200 is now preserved in the Bulawayo Railway Museum,[2] and 1207 at Sandstone Heritage Trust in South Africa.[3]
