The South West African Jung 0-6-2T of 1904 was a narrow gauge steam locomotive from the German South West Africa era.

In 1904, the Otavi Mining and Railway Company in German South West Africa acquired fifteen 0-6-2T locomotives from Arnold Jung Lokomotivfabrik in Germany. Two of them survived the First World War to be taken onto the South African Railways roster in 1922.
