2 0-6-0ST Avonside 1916 of 1922 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo No. 2 was one of a pair of Avonside locomotives acquired in 1922 by Abermain-Seaham Collieries Ltd for use at Abermain No.2 & 3 Collieries, where they were known as 'Bristol Bombers'.  No. 2 ended it career in 1969 and was stored at Hexham until purchased for preservation in 1973.  This loco was the first preserved in connection with what became the Dorrigo Steam Railway & Museum, and accordingly is featured on the letterhead of the organisation. (54)  This photo of 24 January 2004 shows J & A Brown No.2 stored in black-oil at Dorrigo; unfortunately the Walschaerts valve gear is obscured in this view.
3 0-6-0ST Kitson 2236 of 1878 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo This historic locomotive was ordered by Brown as a copy of his favourite locomotive, No. 20N ('4' below) at NSWRTM. In time, Brown was also able to purchase the original 20N.  This photo of 24 January 2004 shows J & A Brown No.3 stored in black-oil in Dorrigo.

5 0-6-4T Beyer Peacock 2601 of 1885 Stored NSWRTM Thirlmere J&A Brown No.5 was originally a condensing locomotive used on the Mersey Railway, Liverpool, prior to electrification of this underground railway in 1904. Four were sold to J&A Brown and overhauled in the UK (including removal of condensing gear) prior to shipment to Australia. No. 5 was derelict at Hexham for many years prior to being purchased for preservation by the NSWRTM in 1973. It was shunted into the storage sidings at Thirlmere in 1983, where it is seen in this view of 17 March 2003.  Of the other three imported to Australia, only the crank wheelset of No.8 also survives, on display at the Richmond Vale Railway.  A sister locomotive is also preserved in the UK.  UPDATE: No.5 was shunted into covered storage at the NSWRTM in late 2004, and a group of volunteers is intending to start cosmetic restoration of this interesting locomotive.
9 2-8-2T Kitson 4567 of 1908 Display Richmond Vale Railway, Kurri Kurri No.9 was originally named 'Pelaw Main'. This locomotive (and sister 10 below) have the appearance of a side-tank version of a ROD 2-8-0. (1)  No.9 and No.10 (below) ended their careers on the RVR's Hexham Washery shunt and the short trip to Stockrington Colliery.  In about 1976 they were replaced by SMR 10-class tank locos, and were placed into storage on the sidings at Hexham.  In 1982 they were transferred to the Richmond Main Colliery site of the Richmond Vale Railway Museum.  This photo (dated 27 April 2002) shows No.9 displayed at Richmond Main Colliery.
10 2-8-2T Kitson 4798 of 1911 Display Richmond Vale Railway, Kurri Kurri No.10 was originally named 'Richmond Main'.  (There was once a sister loco No.11 'Hexham', but unfortunately it was scrapped.)  No.9 and No.10 ended their careers on the RVR's Hexham Washery shunt and the short trip to Stockrington Colliery.  In about 1976 they were replaced by SMR 10-class tank locos, and were placed into storage on the sidings at Hexham.  In 1982 they were transferred to the Richmond Main Colliery site of the Richmond Vale Railway Museum. This photo (27 April 2002) shows No.10 displayed at Richmond Main Colliery.

Display Powerhouse Museum ex-Sydney Steam Tram Motor.  I have been informed that the tram motor displayed by the Powerhouse Museum is not really No.1, but No.28A, which was built locally to the Baldwin design by Henry Vale and Sons. Possibly the reason for the subterfuge is that when the NSW tramways decided to preserve No.1 it was found to be in such poor condition as to make it only fit for scrap (18). Photo courtesy of Mark Newton shows 28A at the Powerhouse Museum, Ultimo, in 1994.
100 0-4-0ST Baldwin 11665 of 1891 Operational MOTAT Auckland, New Zealand ex-Sydney Steam Tram Motor. Exported to New Zealand for use at Wanganui in 1911.  (I had previously listed this steam tram incorrectly as 100A. I have since been informed the loco is number 100, not 100A, as the "A" suffix denotes conversion to one-man operation, which 100 never underwent. It still has only a single driving position on the right-hand side. (18). Photo courtesy of Mark Newton shows 100 newly restored at MOTAT.
103A 0-4-0ST Baldwin 11676 of 1891 Operational Valley Heights Steam Tramway ex-Sydney Steam Tram Motor.  103A was preserved operational for many years at the former Parramatta Park Steam Tramway until the arson attack at this museum in June 1993 destroyed most stock. 103A's wooden cab was incinerated at this time but the remainder of the loco was salvaged for restoration and moved to Valley Heights, where a new cab is under construction. (1)  Restoration is now expected to be completed by September 2005.  This photo, courtesy of Mark Newton, shows 103A in operation at Parramatta Park with an original steam tram trailer.
John Bull 0-4-0VB Beyer Peacock 2464 of 1885 Operational Critch Tramway Museum, Derbyshire, UK This historic locomotive was imported as a trial unit by NSW Government Tramways in 1885, for comparison against the Baldwin steam tram design (such as 28A, 100 and 103A above).  The Baldwin design prevailed and this engine returned to the UK in 1889  to become Beyer Peacock works shunter No.2.  The engine is thought to have been used on certain colliery and railway construction jobs in the Illawarra between 1887 and 1888, prior to its return to the UK.  "John Bull" is now preserved at the National Tramway Museum, Critch Tramway Village in the UK Midlands.  This photo is kindly provided by Chris Thompson and shows John Bull on display at Critch on 16 June 2007.  Chris has also provided photos showing the builder's plate and this information panel showing some history of this interesting steam tram survivor.

South Bulli No. 4 0-6-0ST Avonside 1574 of 1909 Plinthed Corrimal (shopping district) Ex-South Bulli Colliery, where it was one of several similar Avonside saddletank locos.  A plaque mounted on the locomotive states 'This locomotive was in service at  South Bulli Colliery from 1909 to 1967. It was used to haul coal from the Colliery to the jetty at Bellambi Haven. This locomotive was donated by the Bellambi Coal Co. to the Lions Club of Corrimal for installation in this park as a community service project. It was officially presented by the club to the Council of the City of Greater Wollongong on 31 May 1969.'  This loco was taken off-site for stripping and repainting by the Council in 1999, and then re-plinthed. This photo of 19 March 2006 shows No.4 back at Corrimal, with its copper chimney cap and nameplate now missing. (1)  (This loco makes an interesting contract with its more modern Avonside sister shown at the top of this page, J & A Brown No.2.)

Kathleen

 0-4-0ST Avonside 1862 of 1921 Workshops Richmond Vale Railway, Kurri Kurri Kathleen had been displayed at the NSWRTM in attractive lined green livery, but the paintwork had become faded and rust-streaked from open-air display and in 1983 it was moved onto he long-term storage sidings.  In 1985 Kathleen was placed on long-term loan to the RVR. This 1985 photo shows Kathleen shortly after arrival at the RVR, in the industrial surrounds of the Richmond Main Colliery.  She has since been dismantled for overhaul, which is progressing slowly within the engine shed at Richmond Main colliery.

Badger 0-6-0ST Australian Iron & Steel, built 1943 Stored DSR&M Dorrigo Ex-Australian Iron & Steel, Port Kembla.  This loco, and 'Bronzewing' below, were of a class of 8 used at the AIS steelworks for shunting duties including moving hot slag ladles to the lag dumps.  These locomotives were scrapped in Jan/Feb 1975 excepting the two saved for preservation. One reference lists this loco as actually 'Bantam', AIS built 1944, but carrying 'Badger's' nameplates. This photo (courtesy of Mark Newton) shows Badger at Dorrigo in 1999, propped on blocks and stored in black oil for weatherproofing. (Badger's wheels and motion were are also stored nearby.)
Bronzewing 0-6-0ST Clyde Engineering 457 of 1937 Operational BHP Port Kembla Ex-Australian Iron & Steel, Wollongong (Now BHP Steel Flat Products Division), Port Kembla.  Bronzewing had been displayed at the NSWRTM where it received a static restoration in the 1970's.  It later returned to the BHP Port Kembla steelworks, together with two end-platform carriages, and was restored to operation for special events connected with the steelworks.  Following the outsourcing of rail operations at the steelworks, Bronzewing and the two carriages returned to the NSWRTM on 27 June 2007.

Marjorie

 0-4-0ST Clyde Engineering 462 of 1938 Operational Richmond Vale Railway, Kurri Kurri Marjorie is an Australian-built copy of the classic Avonside design of shunting locomotive, and is very similar to 'Kathleen' (above).  Marjorie had been plinthed at Edgeworth, near Newcastle, during the 1970's.  It was acquired by the RVR and restored to operation in the early 1980's. (1)  This photo is kindly provided by Paul Bird and shows Marjorie in the industrial surroundings of the Richmond Main Colliery site of the RVR on 21 April 2006.  Here is an earlier photo from Paul Bird showing Marjorie within the historic running shed at the Richmond Main Colliery site of the RVR; the loco is in steam for its annual boiler exam on 12 February 2005.  Kathleen can just be seen under overhaul in the adjacent stall.

Alison 0-4-0ST Barclay 1738 of 1923 Stored NSWRTM Thirlmere Purchased second-hand but virtually new from the Silicate Construction Company of London by Goninan & Company, Newcastle NSW, and then resold to the operators of Cessnock No.1 Colliery at Kalingo. Sold to Lysaghts (steel rolling mill operators) in 1933 for shunting duties at their Newcastle plant, and later transferred to Lysaghts' Port Kembla operations. Donated to the NSWRTM in 1972 for display at the Enfield museum site. (36)  Moved to the NSWRTM's new Thirlmere site in 1974 where it was an attractive exhibit displayed in lined apple green livery. However the livery faded with exposure to the elements and Alison was shunted onto the storage sidings at Thirlmere in 1983, where it remains as seen in this photo of 17 March 2003. (1)  Alison is expected to be transferred to the Glenreagh Mountain Railway during 2005 for restoration to operation.

It was then placed on loan to an organisation at St Marys and plinthed under a weather roof. It is located at the front of St Marys RSL club opposite Mc Donald's, Corner of Mamre Rd & Hall St.  This photo of BHP No. 16 is kindly provided by David Tickner.
2 'Stevo' 0-6-0ST Stephenson 2994 of 1899 Operational Valley Heights Steam Tramway Ex-Blue Circle Southern Cement, Portland. No.2 'Stevo' had been stored at the back of the shed at the Parramatta Park Steam Tramway for many years.  It was restored to operation under contract at the NSWRTM Thirlmere during 1993. Fortunately 'Stevo' had not returned to Parramatta Park Steam Tramway site at the time of the arson attack that destroyed the Parramatta Park site and much of the collection.  Stevo was later relocated from Thirlmere to Valley Heights, which had become the new base of the former Parramatta Park collection.  This photo is courtesy of Mark Newton and shows No.2 Stevo at Parramatta Park in October 1992, before moving to Thirlmere for overhaul.

Wolgan Valley Shays C - type Lima Remnants Various The Wolgan Valley Railway in the NSW Blue Mountains is one of the most famous and dramatic of Australia's mountain railways.  Although the rails were lifted long ago it can still be appreciated and enjoyed as significant parts of the route remain available as a walking track through the Gardens of Stone National Park, including the 1:25 descent through the Glowworm Tunnel to Newnes.  Much has been written of this railway, including a description of the route selection and construction by the Engineer Henry Deane.  Four C-type shays once operated this line, and although the last remnants were dismantled for scrap around 1956 there are still some reminders of these interesting locos, such as this bell which is on display at the excellent Lithgow Mining Museum.  Another of the loco bells now rings in the tower of a church in Ainslie, Canberra.  Two tender tanks remain; one at Newnes station site, and another (filled with noxious tar) at the Glen Davis oil refinery site (clearly this one was adopted for static use when oil shale refining moved from Newnes to Glen Davis.)  Some scattered remnants of Shay No.1 possibly exist at the old Mt Constance engine shed site (I recall seeing a railway wheelset there in the early 1980's).  Finally, the main frames of No.1 were adopted by the railway to become a small bridge at the lower mouth of the Glowworm tunnel, where they remain to this day.
( - ) Climax B -type  Climax 1375 of ? Boiler only Kendall Climax 1375 we used by Longworth's sawmill tramway at Kendall, NSW, which featured wooden rails.  After the loco's final run in 1933, the boiler was adapted for static use in a sawmill. The boiler, smokebox and smokebox saddle of Climax 1375 are now displayed at Kendall, NSW (Port Macquarie region) as a memorial to the Longworth's mill and tramway, and part of the tramway formation has been opened as a walking track. This photo of 1 January 2004 shows the boiler displayed at Kendall. (1)

W22

Beyer Peacock 7418 of 1951

Stored

Pichi Richi Railway, Quorn

 Named 'Justin Hancock' in service. (8) The Silverton Tramway W-class were copies of the West Australian W-class locomotives, the major difference being a skyline cowling along the boiler top. W22 was previously displayed at the Puffing Billy Museum, Menzies Creek, Victoria as per this 1970 photo which is kindly provided by Anthony Winstone. After many years of static display at Menzies Creek, W22 was transferred to the Pichi Richi Railway, SA for restoration to operation.  However upon detailed inspection at the PRR it was discovered to be in poor mechanical condition, and instead WAGR loco W916 has been restored to operation as Silverton W22, apparently using some W22 parts (probably the skyline cowling).  The real W22 is seen in this 11 June 2000 photograph stored in the workshops at PRR, stripped of cowling and boiler clothing.

Climax Climax B-type Climax 1653 of 1923 Display Tasmanian Transport Museum, Glenorchy, Hobart, Tasmania This locomotive was originally ordered by a New Zealand firm but by 1925 was working for Pines and Hardwoods Ltd near Simmsville, NSW, where it worked with other Climax locomotives and was named Soward. (45)  In 1939 it was sold to Australian Newsprint Mills Ltd for use in Tasmania's Derwent Valley.  The locomotive was abandoned near Maydena around 1949 and became derelict, but was donated by Australian Newsprint Mills to the TTM in 1977. (45) A visit to the TTM in 1993 found Climax 1653 unrestored and in storage at the rear of the museum, but the locomotive has since received a thorough static restoration and is now displayed in the replica roundhouse, as seen in this photo of 30 April 2003.

Kate - 0-6-0T Fowler 8762 of 1901 Drowned Burrinjuck Dam Apparently originally owned by Colonial Sugar Refining, later used in construction of Cataract Dam.  Last used hauling river sand in connection with Burrinjuck Dam construction. Disposal details are not recorded and the loco is rumoured to have been abandoned and drowned under the new dam waters in 1928.  No trace of the loco has been found during drought times of low water in the dam, however the likely abandonment area (presumably the loco shed near the dam wall) was in deep water even in these times.
Dulce 0-6-0T Krauss 5869 of 1907 Stored, dismantled Kallangur (north of Brisbane), Qld Ex-Burrinjuck Tramway, later ex-North Eton Mill No.5.  Dulce was built as a 0-4-0T, but converted to 0-6-0T in 1937 after leaving the Burrinjuck Tramway. Dulce had been plinthed as a park engine, as seen in this photo kindly provided by Anthony Winstone. Dulce is now privately owned and stored dismantled and derelict at Kallangur, as seen in this photo of 12 April 2003 showing the frame, cab and tanks of 'Dulce' being engulfed by long grass. (1)
Robin - 0-4-0T Krauss 5870 of 1907 Buried Kiama Ex-Burrinjuck Tramway. Robin's final user was the NSW State Metal Quarries, Kiama, where the loco was apparently buried on site after 1938.
Jack 0-4-0T Krauss 5945 of 1907 Stored Burrinjuck Dam Ex-Burrinjuck Tramway, later Fairymead Sugar Mill, Qld.  Following retirement from Fairymead Mill in about 1964 , 'Jack' became an operational exhibit at the Marsden Steam Museum, Goulburn, providing trips along the 1km demonstration line which ran to the Museum gates. The steam locomotive collection at Goulburn was reduced during the late 1970's and 1980's, and Jack was sold in approximately 1984.  It was then proposed as a working exhibit at Burrinjuck dam, and partially dismantled for assessment, but the boiler was found to be in poor condition and the overhaul did not proceed.  Jack as been since been stored in a shed at Burrinjuck (with the boiler resting at an angle in the frames) but is not available for public viewing. This photo of 17 January 2004 shows Jack in storage at Burrinjuck Dam. (1)

( - ) (Photo required) 0-4-0T Krauss 6927 of 1914 Frame & wheels only Sydney suburbs (privately owned) Ex-Corrimal Colliery. These remains were retrieved from Corrimal Colliery in the early 1970's.  Apparently they were in private ownership and possibly kept at the ILRMS, Albion Park.  I believe they have since moved to a private location in the Sydney suburbs.  Further information is welcome.
PWD 35 0-4-0T Fowler 16089 of 1923 Workshop ILRMS, Albion Park This locomotive was originally PWD No.35 and had worked on the gravel railways around Kiama.  It is sometimes referred to as 'Wollondilly'.  It has been associated with various proposals for establishment of a tourist railway at Kiama.  PWD 35 was at the Goulburn Museum of Historic Engines from 1958 to 1974 and had some operation in that period.    This photo shows PWD 35 in storage at the ILRMS open day on 19 March 2006; I understand that it requires some repairs.  (1)
