The Manila Railroad 300 class[a] of 1914 were cog locomotives used for the Antipolo line and the Aringay–Baguio branch of the PNR North Main Line. These were also known in the railroad's mechanical department as the R class.[1]
Built by German manufacturer Maschinenfabrik Esslingen and Swiss Locomotive & Machine Works of Winterthur in 1914, they were the latter of only two classes of German-built locomotives that entered service in the Philippines. These were either destroyed during World War II or scrapped in 1945. Only the builder's plate of No. 306 survive to the present day after being kept and restored in the California State Railroad Museum.
