That looks like a real oldie, any idea when it was originally introduced?

Nice shot - a real no-nonsense workhorse of an engine. I looked it up and these locos were built between 1902 and 1920 - but they were much rebuilt throughout their lives.

Which station is this?

Nice Loco, real feel of the power of the engine here.

On her builder's plate it shows 1912.

John.

Southern Cross Station, Re- Melbourne's old Spencer Street.
