The Class 4110 (4110形) is a class of 0-10-0 steam locomotive built by the Japanese Government Railways (JGR). A total of 39 locomotives were built by Kawasaki Shipyard (present-day Kawasaki Heavy Industries), as copies of the earlier Class 4100 0-10-0T locomotives imported from Maffei in Germany in 1912.[1]

A total of five were converted to standard gauge and sent to Korea in 1939, four to the Pyeongbuk Railway and one to the Danpung Railway.[2] After the partition of Korea in 1945, all five locomotives were taken over by the Korean State Railway of North Korea, but their subsequent fate is unknown.

Preserved examples

One Class 4110 remains in preservation: 4122 in Ebetsu, Hokkaido.[3]
