In 1911, Victorian Railways ordered 2 rail motors from the McKeen Company in Omaha USA. The units seem to have been a failure, as by 1919, their engines were removed and were used as passenger cars on the Altona line, usually hauled by a steam locomotive which created some odd trains. Both were scrapped in August 1926.
This is our mighty Heavy Harry, the largest locomotive built in Australia. He was built in 1941 at Newport Workshops and was put to work on Victoria's North East Line from Melbourne to Albury. Retired in 1956 due to worn condition. He's now at our Newport Railway Museum.
This is E236, my all time favorite train. He was built in 1893 in Melbourne (my city) for use on their passenger network. Taken off passenger roster in 1920 and retired altogether in 1953, he has sat in my local train museum. I remember seeing him for the first time in person and falling in love. I affectionally call him "Mr 236.'
