The Indian locomotive class HG (Heavy Goods) is a 2-8-0 goods traffic steam locomotive introduced in 1907 as one of seven standard locomotive designs developed by the Engineering Standards Committee (later the British Engineering Standards Association (BESA)) for use on British Indian railways. Locomotives of this design were rostered by various British Indian railways, later passing on to Indian Railways and Pakistan Railways after the partition, the latter of which continued using these locomotives into the 21st century to haul the Khyber Steam Safari on the rugged Khyber Pass Railway.
