The South West African Class Ha 0-6-2T of 1904 was a steam locomotive from the German South West Africa era.
In 1904, the German administration in German South West Africa acquired ten Class Ha 0-6-2T locomotives for lease to the Otavi Mining and Railway Company. Only one of these locomotives survived the First World War to be taken onto the roster of the South African Railways.[1][2][3]
