SNCB Type 26  The NMBS/SNCB Type 26 was a class of steam locomotives built between 1945 and 1947. Originally commissioned as part of an order for 200 DRB Class 52 "Kriegslokomotiven" placed by the "Deutsche Reichsbahn" (DRG) with Belgian locomotive manufacturers in 1943, the 100 members of the Type 26 class were completed for the National Railway Company of Belgium (NMBS/SNCB) following the liberation of Belgium late in 1944. No members of the class have been preserved. However, the railway preservation organisation TSP-PFT acquired a similar loco in Poland, restored it to resemble its Type 26 counterparts, numbered it 26.101, and now uses it to haul special trains.
