128 P127 0-6-0ST Vulcan Foundry 834 of 1879 Display Yass Railway Museum No. 128 was one of an order of 3 locomotives built by Vulcan Foundry, Lancashire, and used for various duties including the Yass Tramway from 1892 to 1910.  No. 128 was later sold to the Commonwealth Government and used in the construction of the Jervis Bay breakwater. It was sold to Kalingo Colliery, Cessnock in the 1930s.  When redundant it was partially scrapped leaving the frames, wheels and smokebox. At one time the remnants were expected to be scrapped and thus various components such as the rods & brake rigging were removed from the locomotive and are apparently now stored with the DSR&M collection at Dorrigo.  These locomotive remnants were retrieved from Kalingo Colliery in 1983 (30) and initially displayed at the Richmond Vale Railway Museum. (1) The boiler of sister loco P129 was discovered at a sawmill, and was purchased and transported to Yass in April 2000. The sawmill operator apparently purchased P129 from Mt Kiera Colliery in 1950's and, as only the boiler was needed the rest of P129 was left for scrap (31).  This photo of 2/10/02 shows the combined remains of P128 and P129 at Yass.

1021 X10 0-4-0ST Manning Wardle 1896 of 1916 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 1021 is a standard Manning Wardle design of shunting / construction locomotive, and one of 5 identical locomotives imported by the Public Works Department.  (A second locomotive from this batch is preserved by the Powerhouse Museum; refer to the NSW Industrial page). This photo shows 1021 in the display hall at the NSWRTM on 5 March 2006.  Stephen Tolhurst provides an excellent history of loco 1021 on his X10 website.
1022 X10 0-4-0ST Vulcan Iron Works 2505 of 1916 Workshop Valley Heights Steam Tramway 1022 and sister 1023 were built to a standard Vulcan Iron Works shunting design, and are similar to Emu Gravel 1 (refer NSW Industrial locomotives). In NSWGR service 1022 and 1023 were used for many years as roundhouse shunters at the Enfield steam loco depot. This photo (courtesy of Mark Newton) shows 1022 operational at the Parramatta Park Steam Tram Museum in 1992, prior to the locomotive being damaged by arson in June 1993.  1022 is now under restoration to operation at Valley Heights; here are two photos from 10 August 2006 showing 1022 stripped down to components and extensive repairs to a cracked cylinder & smokebox saddle casting.  Stephen Tolhurst also provides an excellent history of 1022 on his X10 website.

1033 X10 2-4-0T Beyer Peacock 2661 of 1885 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere Originally one of a class of 18 'F351-class' locomotives used for Sydney suburban trains, but relegated to workshop shunting duties later in life. Many were sold into industrial service, but none have survived into preservation via that route. 1033 finished its days as a workshop shunter and mobile steam plant at the Eveleigh Railway Workshops.  (Sister 1042 is also preserved).  This photo of 17 March 2003 shows 1033 on display at the NSWRTM Thirlmere.  Stephen Tolhurst provides a history of loco 1033 on his X10 website.
1034 X10 0-4-0CT Dubs 2250 of 1886 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 1034 is a crane tank locomotive. It was condemned by the NSWGR in October 1969 and retained for the NSWRTM. (3)  (Sister loco 1030 was scrapped several years later.)  Restoration was underway at Enfield but stopped when the NSWRTM  relocated to Thirlmere in 1974, and 1034 has remained partially dismantled ever since. The side tanks were stored in a 4-wheel S-truck at the NSWRTM for many years, awaiting the day this historic locomotive would be restored, and were recently unloaded and placed near the loco.  This photo of 5 March 2006 shows 1034 displayed incomplete at the NSWRTM. (1)  Stephen Tolhurst provides an excellent history of loco 1034 on his X10 website.  A visit to NSWRTM on 4 March 2007 revealed the side tanks cleaned and primed and a notice declaring that restoration of 1034 had commenced.  Here is a photo from that day showing 1034 and the prepared side tanks. UPDATE: By 2 March 2008, progress had moved on to the boiler cladding which was being prepared for refitting.  Replacement timber headstocks have been ordered
1042 X10 2-4-0T Henry Vale 38 of 1887 Plinthed Maitland 1042 is an F351-class loco originally built for Sydney suburban trains, and ended its career as the Cardiff Workshops shunter.  1042 had been preserved at the Cardiff Workshops since retirement in 1973, but moved from to Maitland and was plinthed in a park in 1994 as seen in this photo of 1994.  A weather shelter has since been erected over this locomotive.

1210 Z12 4-4-0 Beyer Peacock 1767 of 1878 Operational ARHS Canberra 1210 was the first locomotive to work into Canberra, in 1913, and had been plinthed at Canberra station since 1962.  1210 was but retrieved in 1984 for restoration in Canberra, and returned to operation in 1988. (1) This photo shows 1210 and 2705 double-heading a photographers' special freight train at the NSWRTM Festival of Steam on 6 March 2004.
1219 Z12 4-4-0 Dubs 1270 of 1880 Stored Broadmeadow Roundhouse (stored for NSWRTM Thirlmere) 1219 features an extended smokebox fitted by the NSW railways to improve steaming.  1219 was withdrawn 1962, transferred to Thirlmere in 1974, and shunted onto the long term storage sidings at Thirlmere in 1983 where it is seen in this photograph of 17 January 2004.  It was shunted into a covered storage siding in late 2004.  A spare Z12 / Z13 boiler (tab 1214) is also stored at Thirlmere, together with several spare 6-wheel tenders.  Sister loco 1243 was an operational loco at the NSWRTM during the 70's and early 80's, and hopefully 1219 will one day be restored to operation in its place. (1)  Update: 1219 has been moved from Thirlmere to storage at Broadmeadow Loco.
1243 Z12 4-4-0 Atlas Engineering 2 of 1882 Display Powerhouse Museum 1243 was withdrawn in 1958 but used for Vintage trains thereafter.  1243 had been an operational exhibit at the NSWRTM Thirlmere during the 70's and early 80's, as seen in this 1981 photo showing 1243 at Thirlmere in its final NSWGR form with extended smokebox and P6 tender.  During the late 1980's it was restored to original condition with short smokebox and low-side tender, and placed on displayed as a static exhibit in the Power House Museum, as seen in this photo of 13 February 2005.

1904 Z19 0-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 1646 of 1877 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo One of 77 examples of the A-93 class freight locomotives, a development of the earlier E-17 class Stephenson 'long-boiler' design (refer E18 above) and originally a main-line freight locomotive. The Z-19 class were later used as branch-line locomotives, particularly on the steep and lightly-laid 'pioneer' lines to Oberon, Dorrigo, Tumut & Batlow, and as yard-shunting locomotives at Darling Harbour. 1904 was retired in 1972. This photo shows 1904 at Dorrigo on 24 January 2004, stored in black oil for weatherproofing.

1919 Z19 0-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 1761 of 1878 Operational Glenreagh Mountain Railway 1919 has had an interesting and varied preservation career.  She was one of the last steam locomotives in NSWGR service when finally retired from shunting duties (after some periods of storage) around 1972/3. 1919 was initially preserved for the Lachlan Vintage Village at Forbes, being plinthed as the gatekeeper in 1979 and later painted a gaudy sky blue livery with silver dome and chimney. It was acquired by the Dorrigo Steam Railway and Museum at the auction of LVV assets in November 1986 and road hauled to Dorrigo.  1919 later passed to the Glenreagh Mountain Railway and was transferred to Glenreagh for restoration in 2000, where restoration to operation was completed in July 2004. The GMR website includes a history of 1919 with many historical and restoration photos.  1919 regularly worked the Glenreagh - Dorrigo line during the 1950's and its return to service on this line is an excellent outcome for the GMR. This photo (and view 2, view 3) shows 1919 approaching Tallawudjah Creek on the GMR in January 2007.  Here is a much earlier photograph (dated approximately 1972) showing 1919 on a tour train at Liverpool.

1923 Z19 0-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 1890 of 1879 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo This photo is courtesy of Mark Newton and shows 1923 at Dorrigo in 1999, stored in black oil for weatherproofing.
2029 Z20 2-6-4T NSW Government Railways 28 of 1911 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 2029 is the last survivor of the Z-20 class, which were a tank-engine version of the A-93 (Z19) class.  (A number of the Z-20 class were converted from Z-19 class locos.)  A complete static restoration of this locomotive was completed at the NSWRTM during the 1990's. This photo from 1983 shows No.2029 at Thirlmere prior to its restoration.
2408 Z24 2-6-0 Dubs & Co. 2631 of 1891 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo The B55-class locomotives (later renamed the Z24 class) comprised 25 locomotives built by Dubs & Co of Scotland.  Originally main-line freight locos, they eventually gravitated to secondary lines, and then shunting roles.  Many were sold to private users including collieries and sand & gravel quarries.  In 1964 loco 2408 was sold by the NSWGR to the Electricity Commission of NSW, who employed the engine for shunting the Bunnerong Powerhouse, Port Botany and where it became No.7, keeping company with sisters 2413, 2414 and 2423.  The locomotive was later donated to the DSR&M, where it is now stored in black oil for weatherproofing, as seen in this photo of 24 January 2004.  Here is a second photo kindly provided by Anthony Winstone which shows 2408 at Dorrigo on 24 September 2005.  (I had incorrectly listed this loco as sister 2414 until March 2007.)
2413 Z24 2-6-0 Dubs & Co. 2635 of 1891 Display Junee Roundhouse Museum 2413 was last used by the Bunnerong powerhouse as their No.6, from 1961 to 1975. (26) Upon retirement it was donated to the ARHS Canberra, where it was displayed as shown in this photo of 1992. (1) 2413 was subsequently towed by rail to the Junee Roundhouse Museum in 24 & 25 May 2002 for static display at the Roundhouse Museum. (26)
2414 Z24 2-6-0 Dubs & Co. 2636 of 1891 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo 2414 was acquired secondhand from the NSWGR in 1959 by the Electricity Commission of NSW for use shunting the Bunnerong Powerhouse, Port Botany where it became No.5.   The locomotive was stopped in 1967 and became a parts donor for sister 2408, until the remains were donated to the DSR&M in 1975.  2414 is now stored at Dorrigo and painted in black oil for weatherproofing, as seen in this photograph of 24 January 2004.  2414 is missing its tender (a spare 24-class tender is stored at the NSWRTM Thirlmere), cab, and the pony truck (although the swing arm remains, and the DSR&M recovered a suitable wheelset from scrap at Chullora).  Accordingly the major components not available are the cab (a relatively simple sheet metal fabrication) and the pony truck axlebox.  (I had incorrectly listed this loco as sister 2408 until March 2007.)
2419 Z24 2-6-0 Dubs & Co. 2641 of 1891 Display Goulburn Roundhouse 2419 remained with the NSWGR for its entire working life.  Upon preservation it was restored to its near-original appearance at the NSWRTM by using a round-top boiler salvaged from scrapped 2604 (or possibly 2602) in place of the later Belpaire boiler, as seen in this view taken at the NSWRTM during April 1985.  Later that year 2419 was transferred by rail to Goulburn Roundhouse, on loan from the NSWRTM, and is now  displayed in one of the bays of the Goulburn roundhouse.
2510 Z25 2-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co. 2082 of 1881 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere The Z25 class comprised 75 locomotives intended for main line freight use, but later demoted to secondary lines and shunting duties as larger locomotives were introduced.  2510 has been fully restored to static display condition by a group of volunteers at the NSWRTM, and displayed in lined black livery as seen in this photo (courtesy of Mark Newton) which shows 2510 in the display hall at the NSWRTM, Thirlmere in 1992.
2535 Z25 2-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 2322 of 1884 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo 2535 was sold by the NSWGR to AIS and was later plinthed by the company at Coniston. Unfortunately when being placed on the plinth the lifting chains were poorly placed under the locomotive, resulting in buckled running boards.  2535 was becoming derelict at Coniston and was under threat of scrapping until acquired by the DSR&M.  It was transferred to Rhondda Colliery for storage from the mid-1970's to the mid 1980's, when it was moved by road to Dorrigo.  This photo of 24 January 2004 shows 2535 (sans tender) stored at Dorrigo (the tender is also stored nearby) and the buckled running boards can clearly be seen.
2605 Z26 2-6-2ST Dubs & Co. 2794 of 1891 Workshop State Mine Heritage Park & Museum, Lithgow The Z-26 class was a saddle-tank version of the B55 (later Z-24) class, designed for banking duties and short-distance freight work.  2605 was sold by the NSWGR to the Portland Cement Company in 1966 and used at their Portland cement works until about 1983.  It had been restored to operation when damaged by a fire in the State Mine railway storage shed on 31 October 2001 which also destroyed several antique passenger carriages. 2605 has since been cosmetically restored.  This photo is courtesy of Mark Newton and shows 2605 at the State Mine Museum, Lithgow, shortly before the fire.
2606 Z26 2-6-2ST Dubs & Co. 2795 of 1891 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 2606 had been displayed at the NSWRTM in unrestored condition, with faded black livery and old road grime, until 1988 when it was given a quick cleaning and repainted in unlined black livery. (1) This photo shows 2606 displayed at Thirlmere on 17 March 2003.
2705 Z27 2-6-0 Hunslet 1115 of 1913 Operational NSWRTM Thirlmere 2705 is the last survivor of the Z-27 class moguls, which were originally purchased by the Department of Public Works for construction duties.  The class was rebuilt by the NSWGR with Z-25 class boilers.  2705 was displayed as a static exhibit at the NSWRTM Thirlmere until restored to operation in the mid-1990's.  2705 is now the regular locomotive on the Thirlmere-Buxton tourist trains, and wears attractive lined green livery.  The boiler was recently swapped with a spare (tab 2531) during overhaul.  This photo shows 2705 at Hawkesbury River in about 1994.
3001T C30T 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 4444 of 1903 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3001T was built as a 4-6-4T but converted to 4-6-0 after electrification of the Sydney suburban lines, and used on country branches.  It has a superheated boiler.  3001T was restored to operation by the NSWRTM during the early 1980's but was withdrawn in approximately 1997 due to deteriorating mechanical condition, and is now displayed in lined black livery as a static exhibit at Thirlmere. This 1995 photograph shows 3001T running around its train on the NSWRTM 'Loop Line' at Buxton station.
3013 C30 4-6-4T Beyer Peacock & Co 4456 of 1903 Workshop Lachlan Valley Railway 3013 was originally numbered S 648 but renumbered to 3013 in the NSWGR 1924 renumbering scheme.  3013 was withdrawn by the NSWGR in January 1967 before being sold to a coal mining company later that year, and subsequently used at Hebburn No.2 Colliery until about 1973.  It was sold for preservation in 1982 and transferred to the Cowra depot of the LVR.  3013 has been dismantled since the 1980's as part of a protracted overhaul.  This photo is courtesy of John Hurst and shows 3013 during its time at Hebburn colliery; the front air reservoirs were a modification applied when in coal mining ownership.
3016T C30T 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 4459 of 1903 Operational ARHS Canberra 3016T was originally built as a 4-6-4T for Sydney suburban train running.  Following electrification of the Sydney suburban railways, it was rebuilt to a 4-6-0 configuration for use on country branch lines.  It has a superheated boiler.  3016T was restored to operation by the ARHS Canberra and operated on tourist trains through the late 1980's and 1990's, wearing an attractive lined Prussian Blue livery.  3016T was dismantled for overhaul during 2003 and transferred to the NSWRTM Thirlmere for contract overhaul in late 2004.  At completion of its overhaul, 3016T began running-in duties at the NSWRTM Steam Extravaganza in September 2006 prior to a number of mainline tours and transfer back to Canberra. (1) This photo is  courtesy of Shaun Barker and shows 3016T on the turntable at Queanbeyan, NSW in 1994.
3026T C30T 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 4469 of 1903 Display Lachlan Valley Railway 3026T was originally built as a 4-6-4T for Sydney suburban train running, and was numbered S 661.  Following electrification of the Sydney suburban railways, it was rebuilt to a 4-6-0 configuration for use on country branch lines.  3026T retains a saturated boiler. 3026T was operational at the LVR during the 1970's but is currently displayed in the semi-roundhouse at Cowra awaiting overhaul.  This photo is kindly provided by Chris Stratton and shows 3026T and 4204 hauling a LVR tour train at Westville on 25 September 1993.
3028T C30T 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 4471 of 1904 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo 3028T was originally built as a 4-6-4T for Sydney suburban train running.  Following electrification of the Sydney suburban railways, it was rebuilt to a 4-6-0 configuration for use on country branch lines..  3028T has a saturated boiler but with extended smokebox, and is preserved with the tender last allocated to sister loco 3144T.  (This tender is a 6-wheel 32-class tender with equalised springing on the rear two axles, and retains under a thin coat of black the number and light green livery carried by 3144T prior to its withdrawal from shunting duties at Dubbo.)   3028T operated the re-opening train to Dorrigo in 1986 (with 5069), and is now stored in black-oil in Dorrigo station yard.  This photo is kindly provided by Anthony Winstone and shows 3028T at Dorrigo in 1986.
3046 C30 4-6-4T Beyer Peacock & Co 5140 of 1908 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo This photo (courtesy of Mark Newton) shows 3046 at Dorrigo in 1999, stored in the station yard and coated with black oil for weatherproofing.
3075T C30T 4-6-0 NSW Government Railways 42 of 1912 Plinthed Parkes 3075T was built as a 4-6-4T but converted to 4-6-0 following electrification of the Sydney suburban network.  (3075T ran a tour to Liverpool together with 1919 in about 1971 or 1972, which became one of my earliest memories.)  The copper inner firebox was scrapped in the 1970's to finance 3075T's preservation, and it is now plinthed in Parkes in central western NSW.  This photo was taken in 1995.
3085 C30 4-6-4T NSW Government Railways 52 of 1912 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3085 was the last C-30 tank locomotive in service with the NSWGR when withdrawn in 1972. It remains displayed unrestored but complete at the NSWRTM Thirlmere, in faded lined black livery, as seen in this photograph of 17 March 2003. Following withdrawal of 3137 in the 1990's there have been occasional proposals to restore 3085 to operation at the NSWRTM, but this role tends to be filled by 3112 which often visits Thirlmere on hire. (1) 
3090T C30T 4-6-0 NSW Government Railways 57 of 1912 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo 3090T was originally built as a 4-6-4T for Sydney suburban train running.  Following electrification of the Sydney suburban railways, it was rebuilt to a 4-6-0 configuration for use on country branch lines.  In preservation, 3090T and 5069 operated the first DSR&M steam train into Dorrigo station in 1986, but has seen little use since.  This photo is courtesy of Mark Newton and shows 3090T at Dorrigo in 1999, stored in black oil for weatherproofing.
3102T C30T 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 5797 of 1912 Stored ARHS Canberra 3102T was originally built as a 4-6-4T for Sydney suburban train running. Following electrification of the Sydney suburban railways, it was rebuilt to a 4-6-0 configuration for use on country branch lines.  It retains a saturated boiler.  3102T had been maintained operational by the ARHS Canberra during the 1970's and 80's, and together with 3001T hauled the last train on the Crookwell branch line in 1985.  3102T was withdrawn from operation by the ARHS Canberra in August 1987 (with 3016T being returned to operation in its place) and has since been stored awaiting overhaul, as seen in this photo of 29 June 2003.  3102T occasionally donates boiler tubes to operational loco 1210. (1) 
3112 C30 4-6-4T Beyer Peacock & Co 5807 of 1914 Operational Canberra 3112 is privately owned and is normally housed at the old Eveleigh "Large Erecting Shop" together with 3801 and 3830. This photo of 3 March 2002 shows 3112 departing Thirlmere station with a tourist train on the NSWRTM 'Loop Line'.  Update: 3112 ha changed private owners and is now located at Canberra.
3137 C30 4-6-4T NSW Government Railways 134 of 1916 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3137 had been operational at the NSWRTM during the 1970's and 80's but has since been retired as a static exhibit due to deteriorating boiler condition.  This interesting front-end photo of 3137 (courtesy of Paul Bird) shows the display hall at the NSWRTM
3203 C32 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 3402 of 1891 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3203 had been preserved operational at the NSWRTM in 1970's but was retired due to deteriorating boiler condition and is now a static exhibit.  This 1973 photo is courtesy of John Hurst and shows 3203 climbing the Blue Mountains, near Mt Victoria.
3214 C32 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 3413 of 1892 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3214 was preserved operational at the NSWRTM until withdrawn in 1982 due to boiler condition. 3214 had operated in an attractive maroon livery in the late 1970's, but has since been repainted into black livery and is now a static exhibit at the NSWRTM as seen in this photograph of 17 March 2003.

3237 C32 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 3436 of 1892 Operational Lachlan Valley Railway This loco was originally P 508 but became 3237 in the NSWGR 1924 renumbering scheme.  3237 was based at Cowra during part of its working life, and therefore has found a fitting home in preservation at the Cowra semi-roundhouse.  3237 had been dismantled since the 1980's under a protracted overhaul which included a new front tube-plate. The overhaul was completed with 3237's return to steam in mid-2005. (1)  This photograph is kindly provided by Scott Mitchell and shows 3237 in steam at Cowra on 3 October 2005.
3265 C32 4-6-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 4221 of 1901 Workshop L.E.S. Eveleigh for the Powerhouse Museum 3265 has been extensively overhauled at Eveleigh by the Powerhouse Museum.  Refer to the 3265 page for further photos and information.
3526 C35 4-6-0 NSW Government Railways 118 of 1917 Operational NSWRTM Thirlmere 3526 was transferred in steam to the NSWRTM in 1974 but was subsequently relegated to static display.  In 1983 the boiler clothing was removed for assessment of the boiler, and in 1990 restoration to operation began in earnest.  Completion was achieved in early 2004 after a government grant for new boiler tubes.  (In approximately 1990 a spare 35-class boiler -tab 3514 -was also retrieved from static use at the old Eveleigh workshops and is now stored at the NSWRTM.)  This photo shows 3526 at Thirlmere station during the NSWRTM Festival of Steam on 6 March 2005.
3609 C36 4-6-0 NSW Government Railways 156 of 1928 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3609 is displayed at the NSWRTM in lined black livery.  Several spare C36 boilers are also available at the NSWRTM, including boilers tab 3605 and 3534, together with a spare 36-class tender (tab 3617) which was obtained as late as approximately 1988.
3616 C36 4-6-0 Clyde Engineering 400 of 1927 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3616 is unique as the only Australian steam loco fitted with a Giesl ejector, in which form it is preserved at the NSWRTM.  3616 had been statically displayed in lined green livery at the NSWRTM during the 1970's but had become faded and rust-streaked by 1988 when it was repainted in unlined black. Photography within the display hall at the NSWRTM is difficult but I was able to capture this photo of 6 March 2005.  (The Giesl ejector is partially obscured by a weather cover, and the connecting rods have been removed.)  Here is a further photo showing the tender builder's plate.
3642 C36 4-6-0 Clyde Engineering 376 of 1926 Operational NSWRTM Thirlmere 3642 received a heavy overhaul at Goulburn loco depot in approximately 1981 and was operable at the NSWRTM until the late 1990's.  Since then 3642 has been displayed at the NSWRTM while awaiting funding for a tone-up overhaul. UPDATE:  Funding for overhaul was announced in 2006 and restoration got underway during 2007, including the swap of old boiler 3646B for one f the spare 36-class boilers at Thirlmere. (1)  This photo is kindly provided by Jason Smid and shows 3642 displayed at Central Station for the 150 years of NSW railways celebrations on 24 September 2005.  Here is an earlier photo of mine which shows 3642 and 4201 at the NSWRTM gala weekend on a rainy March 1994 day.  Funding for an overhaul of 3642 was recently announced and overhaul at the NSWRTM was due to commence in October 2006.  UPDATE: 3642 was re-launched to traffic on 1 March 2008.
3801 C38 4-6-2 Clyde Engineering 463 of 1943 Operational NSWRTM Thirlmere 3801 has a long and interesting preservation history.  It had been scheduled for withdrawal in the mid-1960's due to deteriorating mechanical condition, but enthusiasts raised sufficient funds to cover the difference between the overhaul of 3801 and a less worn member of the class.  3801 subsequently passed into the NSWRTM preservation fleet and saw extensive tour  train use.  3801 hauled a train of exhibits to the new NSWRTM Thirlmere site in 1974 but by 1976 had been withdrawn from service due to poor boiler condition.  After nearly a decade of static display at Thirlmere it was transferred to the care of the newly-established entity '3801 Limited' under a 20-year lease, and received a heavy overhaul by the Hunter Valley Training Company, Newcastle.  3801 returned to operation in 1986 following total restoration including a new inner firebox and a welded tender tank to replace the rivetted original.  3801 Limited successfully maintained and operated the locomotive out of the old Eveleigh Rail Workshops in central Sydney for 20 years until late 2006. Following expiry of the 20-year lease to 3801 Limited, the locomotive reverted to custody of the NSWRTM and was transferred back to Thirlmere in early 2007.  3801 remains Australia's most famous and most widely travelled steam locomotive, having visited Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Alice Springs and Perth on various rail tours over the years. (1) This photo shows 3801 shunting at Thirlmere station during the NSWRTM gala on 6 March 2005.  Here is a second photo showing 3801 and 3830 doubleheading later the same day.  (Additional 3801 photos are welcome, especially the "grey nurse" livery it wore for a period in 2005/6, and black with red lining livery worn around 1999-2000.)
3813 C38 4-6-2 NSW Government Railways 165 of 1946 Stored, dismantled DSR&M Dorrigo 3813 has an interesting operational history and a rather tragic preservation career, so I have prepared a separate 3813 page to tell the story. This photo is courtesy of John Hurst and dated 17 September 1972 and shows 3813 during happier days.  John's caption reads "...3813 (and 3820) standing just south of the Wingecarribee viaduct, waiting to start a photo run-past".
3820 C38 4-6-2 NSW Government Railways 172 of 1947 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 3820's last journey under steam was to deliver several exhibits to the from Enfield to Thirlmere in 1974, on a temporary boiler certificate.  3820 is now displayed at Thirlmere in lined black livery. (1) This photo is courtesy of John Hurst; date: 1973. Caption: '3820 on the Wagga Wagga viaduct.'
3830 C38 4-6-2 NSW Government Railways 182 of 1949 Operational L.E.S. Eveleigh for the Powerhouse Museum 3830 was reserved for the Powerhouse Museum upon withdrawal by the NSWGR and was stored at the NSWRTM until approximately 1988 when it was towed to the Eveleigh workshops for restoration to operation.  Returned to service in 1997, 3830 is now housed at Eveleigh alongside 3801.  Unlike 3801 it retains a rivetted tender tank.
5069 D50 2-8-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 4374 of 1902 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo 5069 is a saturated-steam locomotive, largely unmodified during its working life. 5069 is now preserved by the DSR&M and worked the re-opening train to Dorrigo (with 3028) in 1986. (1) This photo is courtesy of John Hurst; date: 1973. Caption: '5069 shunts in the rain at Waterfall.'
5096 D50 2-8-0 Clyde Engineering 1 of 1907 Stored Broadmeadow Roundhouse (stored for NSWRTM Thirlmere) 5096 is a saturated-steam locomotive, largely unmodified during its working life.  5096 was the first locomotive built by Clyde Engineering, Granville, NSW, and apparently selected for preservation on this basis. 5096 had been displayed in 'as withdrawn' condition at the NSWRTM until the early 1980's, when the boiler clothing was removed in order to prevent boiler decay. Some repainting was done in 1991 but 5096 is now  stored away from public view (awaiting static restoration) in the workshop area, as seen in this photograph of 17 March 2003. (1)  Update: 5096 has been moved from Thirlmere to storage at Broadmeadow Loco.
5112 D50 2-8-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 5054 of 1908 Workshop Hunter Valley Railway Trust, Rothbury 5112 is a saturated-steam version of the D-50 class and is fitted with a standard Turret tender.  5112 is known as the former Prime Minister Ben Chifley's locomotive, relating to the period when he was a locomotive driver in the Bathurst area.  5112 is owned by Bathurst Council.  5112 has been plinthed at Bathurst station since the 1970's, but was removed to Orange (East Fork Depot) for restoration around the late 1980's (1).  This project apparently stalled and 5112 was later returned to Bathurst and stored in the Council Depot.   In July 2005, 5112 moved to the State Mine Heritage Park & Museum at Lithgow, where it will be assessed for restoration to either static or operational condition.  This photo courtesy of John Hurst and dated January 1985, showing 5112 displayed at Bathurst station prior to its move to Orange.  Update: 5112 is now located at Branxton and is having it static restoration completed by the Hunter Valley Railway Trust
5132 D50 2-8-0 Beyer Peacock & Co 5074 of 1909 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo 5132 is the only preserved example of a superheated D50 class locomotive. This photo (courtesy of Mark Newton) shows 5132 at Dorrigo in 1999, stored in black oil for weatherproofing.
5353 D53 2-8-0 NSW Government Railways 80 of 1913 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo This photo (courtesy of Mark Newton) shows 5353 at Dorrigo in 1999, stored in black oil for weatherproofing.
5367 D53 2-8-0 Clyde Engineering 122 of 1914 Display Lachlan Valley Railway Originally numbered TF 985 but renumbered to 5367 in the NSWGR 1924 renumbering scheme.  5367 was overhauled during 1995 as is preserved operational in the semi-roundhouse at Cowra, where it is also known as 'Rosie'.  This detail photograph was taken at Cowra in 1996. (1)  Update: 5367 is no longer operational
5461 D53 2-8-0 Clyde Engineering 210 of 1916 Static Valley Heights Locomotive Depot Heritage Museum 5461 was an operational exhibit at the NSWRTM during the 1970's and until 1985.  It was transferred to Valley Heights (where apparently it had been allocated at one stage in its life) in 1996, coupled to a Wampu tender (ex-5595.) (1)  This 1981 photo shows 5461 receiving a new roof in the yard at NSWRTM in 1981.  UPDATE: 5461's old boiler lagging was removed by specialist contractors at Valley Heights during 2008.
5595 D55 2-8-0 Clyde Engineering 334 of 1924 Static NSWRTM Thirlmere 5595 is the sole survivor of 120 examples of the D-55 class.  5595 had been somewhat derelict when transferred to the NSWRTM in 1974, but was fully restored as a static exhibit during the late 1990's. This photo shows 5595 on display at the NSWRTM on 6 March 2005.

58-class D58 4-8-2 NSWGR Eveleigh & Cardiff Workshops Components only NSWRTM Thirlmere The D-58 class was designed as an improved version of the earlier D-57 class, featuring 3 cylinders but using rack-and-pinion valve timing instead of Gresley conjugating valve gear.  25 units were planned however only 13 were assembled due to poor performance and a policy change favouring diesel rather than steam locomotives.  All were withdrawn after short lives and regrettably none were preserved.  Many D-57 and D-58 class tenders were retained as water tankers. (One such tender is now preserved by the DSR&M at Dorrigo, and 5808's tender tank is grounded at Canberra station as a diesel fuel bunker.)  Surviving D-58 components are include an example of the large castings for the 3-cylinder front-end, which are stored within the workshop area at the NSWRTM Thirlmere.  These appear to be unused and I believe they came from one of the 58-class locos that had not been assembled.  Hopefully these will one day be cleaned-up and placed on display - perhaps on a freight wagon - as an example of the heavy engineering involved in steam locomotive construction. A 58-class boiler apparently also survives at a sawmill at Deepwater. (1)  David Bromage has kindly provided this photo which shows 5808's tender tank at Canberra on 6 November 2005.
5908 D59 2-8-2 Baldwin Lima Hamilton 75571 of 1952 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 5908 (together with 5916) remains in largely original oil-burning configuration. 5908 apparently survived during the early 1970's as a stationary boiler, and had been displayed at the NSWRTM in 'as received' condition until 1991 when it received a cosmetic repaint into basic black livery.  5908 has occasionally donated parts to its operable sister 5910. (1) This photo of 6 March 2005 shows 5908 at the NSWRTM Thirlmere; the green tint is due to green skylights in the roof above.  UPDATE: 5908's old boiler lagging was removed by specialist contractors during 2008.
5910 D59 2-8-2 Baldwin Lima Hamilton 75573 of 1952 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 5910 was originally built as an oil burner, but later converted to coal firing by the NSWGR.  5910 received a comprehensive overhaul at the NSWRTM from 1981 to 1985, and was extensively used by the NSWRTM as a railtour locomotive until approx 1998 when it was withdrawn due to needed tone-up repairs.  It is now on view in the display hall at the NSWRTM. A spare 59-class boiler is also stored at Thirlmere, and various parts have been borrowed from sisters 5908 and 5916 over the years to keep 5910 running. (1)
5916 D59 2-8-2 Baldwin Lima Hamilton 75579 of 1952 Stored NSWRTM Thirlmere 5916 (together with 5908) remains in largely original oil-burning configuration. After withdrawal 5916 survived during the early 1970's as a stationary boiler, and was delivered to the NSWRTM in about 1980 (based on my recollections).  It still retains in the cab instructions for use as a stationary boiler. 5916 is still in 'as received' condition on the storage siding at Thirlmere, as seen in this photograph of 17 March 2003, and has been used as a donor of motion parts for sister 5910. (1)  UPDATE: 5916's old boiler lagging was removed by specialist contractors during 2008.

 (on loan to 3801 Ltd from Lachlan Valley Railway)

 5917 was originally built as an oil burner, but later converted to coal firing.  5917 was withdrawn by the NSWGR in August 1972 and subsequently preserved by the LVR.  5917 was operational during the 1980's but ran with a smaller 53-class turret tender by the late 1980's as its original tender required a new tank.  Both loco and original tender underwent extensive overhaul at the LVR Cowra during the 1990's. UPDATE:  5917 and original tender were restored to operation at Cowra by September 2007.  (1) This photo is kindly provided by Chris Stratton and shows 5917 (with 53-class tender) and 5367 hauling an LVR tour train near Holmwood on 13 April 1986.  5917 wore a green livery during the 1980's as seen in this photograph; this livery is attractive but not authentic as 59-class locos wore black livery on the NSWGR. (1)  UPDATE: 5917 has been moved to Eveleigh and is currently on loan to 3801Ltd
5920 D59 2-8-2 Baldwin Lima Hamilton 75583 of 1953 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo 5920 was originally built as an oil burner, but later converted to coal firing by the NSWGR.  5920 is stored at Dorrigo by the DSR&M, coated in black oil for weatherproofing as seen in this photograph courtesy of Mark Newton.

6040 AD60 4-8-4 + 4-8-4 Beyer Peacock & Co 7542 of 1956 Display NSWRTM Thirlmere 6040 was rebuilt as 'heavy-type' Garratt (the '++" modifications included bored-out cylinders) but was not modified for dual control ('DC').  6040 had been displayed unrestored at the NSWRTM until 1991, when it was cosmetically repainted by a group of members (although some piping and other components remained stored in the coal bunker). This photograph is kindly provided by Paul Bird and shows 6040 on display at the NSWRTM on 12 April 2003.  A visit to NSWRTM on 4 March 2007 revealed a new restoration effort had begun to spruce up 6040 for its 50th birthday.  The locomotive is being progressively cleaned, repainted and relined, and missing components (such as those stored in the coal space) cleaned, painted and refitted.  By 2 March 2008 the locomotive was looking very good, with miscellaneous pipe work refitted, brass numbers & works plates refitted, and working marker lights.  It transpires that 6040's original cross-compound air compressor had been removed long ago at Enfield to keep a sister in traffic, however the NSWRTM obtained a replacement in 2008 and this has now arrived at Thirlmere and is being prepared for refitting.  UPDATE: 6040's old boiler lagging was removed by specialist contractors during 2008.
