1		C	0-6-0ST + T	Stephenson 2391 of 1880	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	C 1 / Katie was built as a 0-6-0ST to the design of the New Zealand Railways F-class.  It was rebuilt to 0-6-0ST+T in 1887 including addition of a 4-wheel tender. C 1 was sold to a timber concern in 1899. In 1959 it was made available to the WAGR for historical purposes and statically restored at Midland Workshops. ‘Katie’ was originally plinthed at the Claremont Showground in Perth and later moved to the Australian Railway Historical Society (WA Division) Railway Museum at Bassendean.
11		A	2-6-0	Beyer Peacock 2652 of 1885	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	A 11 was withdrawn from WAGR service in January 1955 and fortunately retained for preservation, being plinthed later that year at South Perth Zoo. In 1969, loco A 11 was transferred to the Australian Railway Historical Society (WA Division) Railway Museum at Bassendean, becoming their first locomotive exhibit.
15		A	2-6-0	Beyer Peacock 2711 of 1886	Operational	Meredith, Victoria	A 15 was the last A-class in WAGR traffic when withdrawn in October 1955 and was placed in a Bunbury park in July 1956. In 1982 locomotive A 15 was sold for private preservation and restoration in Victoria and has since been under restoration at a private site with the restoration reported in 2013 as having been steamed, however I understand that the future destination for this locomotive has not yet been finalised.
18		H	0-6-0T	Neilson, Reid & Co. 3631 of 1887	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	H 18 ended its career at Bunbury where it had found use on jetty and other shunting duties. It was presented to the Australian Railway Historical Society (WA Division) as early as 1962 and displayed at Bassendean until 1996, at which stage it moved to Midland Workshops for intended restoration to operation. Unfortunately a new boiler was found to be required, but full mechanical overhaul was completed (pending the possibility of future boiler replacement) and H 18 has now been beautifully restored and returned to static display at the Railway Museum, Bassendean.
53		G	2-6-0	James Martin 117 of 1895	Plinthed	Pemberton	G 53 went to the Commonwealth Railways in 1942 for war-time duty on the North Australia Railway at Darwin, becoming Nfc 69. After the war the North Australia Railway had excess locomotives and Nfc 69 was sold to the State Saw Mills where it was numbered SSM No.7, in which identity it is preserved.
55		G	2-6-0	Neilson & Co 4833 of 1895	Scrapped	-	G 55 was plinthed in a park at Rockingham in 1965. Unfortunately it was subsequently scrapped.
111 (71)		G	4-6-0	Dubs 3495 of 1897	Stored dismantled	Hotham Valley Tourist Railway, Pinjarra	No.71 'Menzies' was originally WAGR loco G 111. It is under restoration to operation for use on the Etmilyn Forest Explorer which operates from Dwellingup on the HVTR. No.71 was fully dismantled at the Pinjarra depot of the HVTR at the time of my visit on 12 May 2002. It is now stored dismantled near Pinjarra.

123		G	4-6-0	Dubs 3507 of 1897	Workshops	Hotham Valley Tourist Railway, Pinjarra	G 123 (and G233) were previously used on 'Leschenault Lady' trains around Bunbury during 1970's and 1980's. G123 had been used on the Etmilyn Forest Explorer operation on the HVTR in 2001.
174		R	4-4-0	Dubs 3674 of 1898	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	R 174 is the only survivor of a class of 24 locomotives built for passenger work. 14 R-class locomotives (including R 174) were later converted to 4-4-2 in order to reduce axle-load for use on secondary routes. R 174 was withdrawn in 1953, restored to 4-4-0, and plinthed outside the Railway Institute Library at Midland Junction. In 1972 it moved to a new plinth at Midland Centrepoint Shopping Centre, which has since been redeveloped. R 174 was donated to WA Rail Heritage for display at Bassendean, where it arrived on 13 March 2011.
233		G	2-6-0	James Martin 174 of 1898	Operational	South-West Rail & Heritage Centre, Boyanup	G 233 (and sister G123) were previously used on the 'Leschenault Lady' tourist trains around Bunbury during 1970's and 1980's. G233 was overhauled at the Midland Workshops in 1999 and for a period worked tourist trains on the historic 'loop line' at Kalgoorlie in the WA Goldfields. It can now be found at the South-West Rail & Heritage Centre, Boyanup.
201		N	4-4-4T	Robert Stephenson 2886 of 1898	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	This class of locomotive was originally designed for suburban passenger trains around Perth and Kalgoorlie. N 201 is the only 4-4-4T preserved in Australia. N 201 is among the exhibits at The Railway Museum, Bassendean.
218		O	2-8-0T+T	Dubs 3585 of 1898	Display	Walkaway Station Museum	The O-class was designed as a light-lines version of the K-class 2-8-4T freight locomotives, and some were also rebuilt to N-class 4-4-4T using common design components. O 218 was displayed at Bassendean for many years but can now be found at the Walkaway Station Museum.
204		K	2-8-4T	Neilson Reid & Co	Scrapped	South Africa	The 24 members of the K-class were introduced for freight work on the Eastern Goldfields Railway, becoming the most powerful locomotive in WA at the time. A further 6 were ordered by the British War Office for use in the Boer War in South Africa (Neilson B/Nos. 5897-5902), eventually becoming Central South African C-class. Although no K-class locos were preserved in Western Australia, C-class No.204 (last used by Clydesdale Collieries) survived until 1972 in South Africa. Alas the type is now extinct on both continents.
308		Es	4-6-2	Vulcan Foundry 1846 of 1902	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	The E-class represents one of the world's earliest Pacific-type locomotives, being ordered in 1900 and entering service in 1903. 308 was reclassified to Es-class following superheating. Es 308 is one of the more significant locomotive exhibits displayed at The Railway Museum, Bassendean.
452		Fs	4-8-0	North British 20087 of 1913	Display	Collie	The F-class heavy freight locomotives were introduced in 1902 and later superheated to become the Fs-class. Fs 452 is displayed in the Collie Museum together with W 943 and V 1215.
460		Fs	4-8-0	North British 20096 of 1913	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	Fs 460 is displayed at The Railway Museum, Bassendean.
496		Msa	2-6-0+0-6-2	W.A.G.R	Scrapped	N/A	The WAGR M/Ms/Msa-class Beyer-Garratts tragically became extinct when with the accidental scrapping of Msa 496 which had been retained at Midland Workshops for intended preservation. While the WAGR M/Ms/Msa classes were lost, fortunately that wasn’t quite the end of the story. Against the odds, one of the two Fyansford locos survived and today the preserved Fyansford No.2 remains as a close link to the important WAGR design in the evolution and ultimate success of the Beyer-Garratt type of locomotive.
508		P	4-6-2	North British 23150 of 1924	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	The P-class were built as main-line express passenger locomotives. P 508 is displayed at Bassendean.

ASG		ASG	4-8-2 + 2-8-4	Various	Components only	Midland Workshops and Yarloop Workshops	The Australian Standard Garratt (ASG) was proposed and designed by the Commonwealth Land Transport Board in 1942 in response to the urgent need for powerful locomotives for the 3' 6" gauge railways of Australia during World War 2. The design team was supervised by the WAGR Chief Mechanical Engineer and the ASG bears some similarity to the WAGR S-class. 25 ASG locomotives were allocated to the WAGR. Although never a WAGR engine, ASG loco G33 survives in Victoria.
592		Dd	4-6-4T	W.A.G.R, built 1946	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	Dd 592 was displayed as a static exhibit at Bassendean from 1972 to 1984, when it moved to Midland Workshops for restoration by the WAGR, following which it entered tourist and historical train duties in 1985. Dd 592 was retired again in 1995 after a decade of service (presumably requiring a further overhaul) and was returned to static display at the Railway Museum, Bassendean.
596		Dd	4-6-4T	W.A.G.R, built 1946	Display	Gosnells Railway Market, Gosnells (Perth)	Dd 596 was purchased by the ARHS in 1974 with the intention of restoration to operation, but inspections in 1983 showed the boiler to be uneconomic to repair and sister Dd 592 was restored instead. Dd 596 was statically restored during 1989 and placed on display at Gosnells Railway Markets in 1990.
655		U	4-6-2	North British 24863 of 1942	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	Manufactured as part of the British war effort for North Africa during World War 2, but unused and became war surplus. Identical locomotives were supplied to the Sudan Railways, where I believe some survive derelict. U 655 is one of 14 locomotives purchased from the British Ministry of Munitions by the WAGR in 1946.
664		Ut	4-6-4T	North British 24841 of 1942	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	The U-class had been replaced by diesels and retired by 1957, but U 664 was converted from a 4-6-2 to a 4-6-4T in 1957 to become the sole member of Ut class. Ut 664 is displayed at The Railway Museum, Bassendean.
701		Pm	4-6-2	North British 26545 of 1949	Display	Railway Museum, Bassendean, Perth	The Pm class was designed as a further improvement to the Pr-class passenger engines but found to be rough riding and so instead used for fast freight trains. Pm 701 is displayed at The Railway Museum, Bassendean.

735		Pmr	4-6-2	North British 26930 of 1950	Stored	Pinjarra	Pmr735 had been plinthed at Tuart Hill for many years. It was later acquired privately and taken to Willis Light Engineering for restoration for intended use by the Pemberton Tramway Co. Alas the restoration project stalled and today Pmr 735 is stored derelict at Pinjarra.
901		W	4-8-2	Beyer Peacock 7378 of 1951	Display	Steamtown, Peterborough, South Australia	The W-class comprised 60 locomotives designed for light lines service. W 901, W 907 and Pmr720 entered preservation in 1978 when sold to the Steamtown Peterborough Preservation Society in South Australia, being delivered to Peterborough in early 1979. W 901 operated tourist services on the Orroroo line until 2002 and is now statically displayed in one of the roundhouse bays in the excellent Steamtown Museum.
