The Turkish State Railways (TCDD) 2201 Class was a class of 0-4-0ST steam locomotives.

They were built by Sharp, Stewart and Company of Manchester, England for the Ottoman Railway Company and were later taken over by TCDD. The four examples in this class were numbered 36–39, later 2201–2204. The first arrived in 1889. At least two, 2201 and 2204, were still in service in 1955 and 2202 was reported to be scrapped in 1956.[1]
