RjB 20, 21 and 22 were three diesel-hydraulic locomotives operated by Norsk Transport on Rjukanbanen in Norway. They were mostly used for shunting at Rjukan and at Mæl.[1]

They were delivered in 1961, and remained in service until 1991 when the line closed; no. 20 remains at Rjukan, while no. 21 was sold to Pepeteries de Golbey of France and no. 22 was transferred to Norsk Hydro at Menstad.[1]
