Pacific locomotives belonging to the class 900 series. They were a batch of 70 locomotives 2-8-2 (Mikado). Built by Hitachi in 1950 as wood burners, but later converted to oil burning. They were used for goods and mixed trains on the Northern and Northeastern lines. Withdrawn in 1982. There is an operational one at this depot at Thonburri, Bangkok. This loco is dumped at the entrance to the depot
