context_page_description: The TR RV class, later known as the EAR 21 class, was a class of 1,000 mm gauge steam locomotives designed and built for the Tanganyika Railway as a 4-8-2 development of the 2-8-2 TR MK class. The eight members of the RV class were built by Vulcan Foundry, in Newton-le-Willows, Lancashire, England.
  The "RV" class designation was short for "River", as each RV class locomotive was named after a river in the Tanganyika Territory. The class entered service on the TR between 1928 and 1930, and its members were later operated by the TR's successor, the East African Railways.
