The “Pure” name came from the American naming system for steam locomotives, under which locomotives with 2-6-2 wheel arrangement were called “Prairie”.[1]In all, Sentetsu owned 227 locomotives of all Pure classes, whilst privately owned railways owned another 52; of these 279 locomotives, 169 went to the Korean National Railroad in South Korea and 110 to the Korean State Railway in North Korea.[2] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsDescription[edit]Postwar[edit]Korean National Railroad \ud478\ub7ec8 (Pureo8) class[edit]Korean State Railway \ubd80\ub7ec\ud30c (Pur\u014fp’a) class\/1800 series[edit]Construction[edit]References[edit]Description[edit]The \u30d7\u30ec\u30cf (Pureha) class was the eighth and final class of 2-6-2 locomotives procured by Sentetsu.[3] They were designed by Sentetsu as the most advanced locomotives in Korea at the time of their introduction, and the first twelve were built in 1932 by the Gyeongsong Works. A further 26 were built in 1939 by Hitachi and Kisha Seiz\u014d and assembled at Sentetsu’s Busan shops.[4] Unlike previous Pure class locomotives, the Pureha class had larger driving wheels, with a diameter of 1,520\u00a0mm (60\u00a0in), which increased their maximum speed to 90\u00a0km\/h (56\u00a0mph). They were frequently used for express trains on the Gyeongin Line.[4]Postwar[edit] A Pureha class locomotive in North Korea during the Korean War, with a Purena-class engine behind it.After the end of the Pacific War and the subsequent partition of Korea, these locomotives were divided between North and South Korea.Korean National Railroad \ud478\ub7ec8 (Pureo8) class[edit]Many Pureha class locomotives were used by the Korean National Railroad after Liberation, which designated them \ud478\ub7ec8 (Pureo8) class;[4] they were used by the KNR primarily for shunting duties, and on light local and suburban passenger services.[5]Korean State Railway \ubd80\ub7ec\ud30c (Pur\u014fp’a) class\/1800 series[edit]The Sentetsu Purena class locomotives that remained in the North after the partition of Korea were operated by the Korean State Railway, designating them \ubd80\ub7ec\ud30c (Pur\u014fp’a) class, and later renumbering them into the 1800 series around the early 1970s. The total number and identities of the engines that went north is uncertain, but it is known \u30d7\u30ec\u30cf38 had gone to the north, where it was in use around Hamheung in 1951, still carrying Sentetsu number plates and emblems. It is unknown whether the locomotive remained in the North after the Korean War, or if it was taken by UN forces during the withdrawal.[5]Construction[edit]Sentetsu Purena-classSentetsu running numberPostwar1938\u20131945pre-1938OwnerNumberBuilderYearWorks no.Notes\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf1\u30d7\u30ec351KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-1Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf2\u30d7\u30ec352??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf3\u30d7\u30ec353??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf4\u30d7\u30ec354??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf5\u30d7\u30ec355??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf6\u30d7\u30ec356??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf7\u30d7\u30ec357??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf8\u30d7\u30ec358??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf9\u30d7\u30ec359??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf10\u30d7\u30ec360??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf11\u30d7\u30ec361??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf12\u30d7\u30ec362??Gyeongseong1932\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf13–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-13Hitachi1939Large Latin “KNR” lettering in 1954.[5]\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf14–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-14Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf15–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-15Hitachi1939Derelict by 1953.[5]\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf16–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf17–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf18–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf19–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-19Hitachi1939In service in 1960.\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf20–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-20Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf21–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf22–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-22Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf23–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-23Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf24–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf25–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-25Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf26–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf27–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf28–KNR\ud478\ub7ec8-28Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf29–??Hitachi1939\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf30–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391710\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf31–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391711\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf32–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391712\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf33–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391713\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf34–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391714\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf35–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391715\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf36–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391716\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf37–??Kisha Seiz\u014d19391717\u30d7\u30ec\u30cf38–KSR\ubd80\ub7ec\ud30c38Kisha Seiz\u014d19391718Still with Sentetsu number plates in 1951.[5]References[edit] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/sentetsu-pureha-class-locomotives-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Sentetsu Pureha-class locomotives – Wikipedia"}}]}]
