With the introduction of these locomotives a wide spread reduction of the NSW locomotive fleet had begun. The first casualties were the veteran fleet of 44 class Alco’s, then the 45 and 442 classes along with the Mark I 48 class. Further reductions to the locomotive occurred with the withdrawals of the 422 and 49 classes.

This overall fleet reduction reduced the average age of Freight Rail’s locomotive fleet from over twenty five year old to approximately ten.

These locomotives have travelled all over NSW and have ventured into Queensland and Victoria on intermodal freight services, and in South Australia on the Leigh Creek coal service. They are currently seen on both coal and wheat services all over the state, through Sydney, and the occasional local trip train around the Sydney metropolitan area.

Arguably the first of the streamliners, and Australian built mainline locomotives. The SAR 900 class diesel-electric locomotive were designed and built in-house by the South Australia Railways, they used English Electric V16 engines. English Electric also supplied the generators and traction motors.

The 10 units were delivered between 1951 and 1953, all were out-of-service by mid 1985.

900 Lady Norrie is preserved by the National Rail Museum, she also ventured across into Victoria to appear at Spencer Street station for the Aus Steam 88 festival. 907 and 909 were operated by SteamRanger tourist railway until 1995.

The British Railways Standard 9F Class was a 2-10-0 steam locomotive, the last of the standardised BR designs. The Robert Riddles design was intended as a long distance heavy express freight locomotive. In total 251 of the class were produced between January 1954 and March 1960, with the final locomotive No. 92220 'Evening Star' being the last steam locomotive built by British Railways.

The huge length of the 10 coupled driving wheels proved problematic when faced with tight curves, a situation that freight haulage would make inevitable. A solution was found by removing the flanges from the centre driving wheel and reducing the size on the flanges on the second and fourth driving axle's wheels.

Riddles had chosen the 2-10-0 wheel configuration in-order to spread the load of the boiler over a greater area. This meant that the boiler had to be raised considerably compared to other designs to allow the firebox to sit above the trailing driving wheels. As a result, the 9F features a distinctive void between the suspended boiler and the footplate.

In operation the class proved extremely versatile. Not only did the 9F excel as a freight locomotive, but when required it also succeeded as a passenger locomotive. Reports even suggest that when 92220 'Evening Star' was used to pull the Red Dragon express service between Cardiff and London it was forced to delay its arrival to allow the restaurant services to be completed, having outperformed the normal Britannia Class locomotives used on the service.

This was not the only time 9Fs had been recorded outperforming dedicated express locomotives and on such services the locomotives were capable of running at over 90mph. This combination of high speed, fast acceleration and powerful hauling capabilities mean that many consider the class to be pinnacle of British steam locomotive design Locomotive numbers 92165-92167 were built with a mechanical stoker.

This system used a helical screw to move coal from the tender straight into the firebox. This meant that coal could be burnt a faster rate than a fireman could maintain otherwise. Systems like this proved extremely useful on long distance American railways however in Britain it was rare for a locomotive to require such as high rate of coal delivery over a long period of time meaning that a good fireman could prove just as effective.

Locomotive number 92097 was the first example of the class built in 1956, it is a Crewe built member of the class. The locomotive would find itself assigned to work heavy Consett iron ore services out of Tyne Dock and as such would be built with a part missing from the right hand running board which would be filled by two large air pumps designed to operate the side doors of the specialised tippler wagons. The locomotive would have these removed before entering normal BR service, and would go on to be withdrawn in 1966.

The new 9F includes a fully diecast boiler and chassis adding plenty of weight allowing the pulling power of the model in 4mm scale to mirror that of the prototype. The models are presented in their authentic service colours with fully detailed and painted cabs, painted and posed crew figures and the flickering firebox feature to illuminate the lot.

The Victorian Railways received their second series of T class locomotives from late 1959, these were mechanically similar to the first series but featured a new raised height operating cab layout. This new style of raised cab design featured throughout the remainder of the T class series.

SDS Models are pleased to offer the inclusion of the T-2 series within our range of Victorian Railways T class models.

Based upon the tried and proven Austrains T class mechanism we have comprehensively retooled almost every item, bringing the model inline with our exacting scale and design standards. Some 220 new or re-made parts are involved in the production of the four series we are offering below. All the models now feature prototypically correct width long hoods, series specific and appropriate fuel tank and battery box combinations, improved appearance bogie side frames and brake shoe / wheel tread alignment and a host of other design detail enhancements.

Introduced in 1996 by National Rail Corporation these 120 units were built by A Goninan and Co. The locomotives are 3000kw General Electric powered and used on standard gauge Australia wide.

They were introduced in grey and marigold and several were painted into various business units of NRC. Later they wore GSR train liveries representing the Hook and Pull agreement between the two companies.

In 2002 Pacific National acquired the assets of NRC and commenced to repaint the NR class into their new blue and yellow colours.

The model features the current tooling from Austrains and includes operating headlights, marker and ditch lights and is Kadee equipped. These are an ideal way to add colour to your collection.

The EF66 was mass-produced in 1968 as a locomotive capable of pulling a 1000t-class high-speed freight train with a maximum speed of 100km/h, with 55 0-series locomotives manufactured.

The early models, numbers 1 to 15, are characterized by the shape of the side inspection hatch and shoulder filter. When they first appeared, they did not have a front awning, but some cars were later modified to have one installed. From 1985, they were selected to pull the Blue Train, and played an active role. Unit 11 is preserved and exhibited at the Railway Museum.
