The JGR Class 5100 ( Jap. 5100形 , 5100-gata ), was a 2'B - steam locomotive used by the Japanese National Railways was used. The locomotives were built by Kitson and Company in 1874 and imported from England as C - tender locomotives with the numbers 18 and 20 ( class 7010 ). The info box information relates to the conversion at JNR in Kobe to locomotives with a tender with a 2'B wheel arrangement.
In 1894 the locomotives were given the class designation N ( N 形 ), in 1898 they were re-designated as D2 ( D2 形 ). When many private railways were nationalized at the beginning of the 20th century, the Japanese state railways had to renumber their locomotives. In the 1909 scheme, they were given the class designation 5100 and the numbers 5100 and 5101.
On August 29, 1918, the two locomotives were removed from the Japanese state railways. Then they went with the numbers 100 and 101 in the inventory of Sagami Tetsudō . Locomotive 100 (formerly 5100 (18) of the State Railways) was sold in 1927 to the Kaya Railway in Kyoto Prefecture , which it classified with the number 1 , and was scrapped in December 1937. Locomotive 101 (formerly 5101 (20) of the state railway) went to the Sumitomo Kinzoku propeller factory in Amagasaki in 1942 and was scrapped in 1951.
