  • 5450 and 5451 (2 units) built 1950
  • Model F7A, 1,435mm-gauge, B-B diesel-electric, 1,500hp
Unlike all other locomotives featured on our site, these two former Western Pacific Railroad F7A locomotives are genuine America F units. They are also the oldest streamliners in Australia, even if they did not spend their entire careers here. They were bought second-hand in 1968 by the then new Mount Newman Mining venture in Western Australia’s remote Pilbara region to be used in construction of the railway between Port Hedland and Newman.

New York Central #5452, a 4-6-4 "Hudson"-type locomotive constructed by the Lima Locomotive Works between 1937-1938. Originally streamlined like all other Hudsons on the NYC, it was used for passenger service, pulling crack trains like the "20th Century Limited" and "Empire State Express." Unfortunately, the engine met its end at the scrapper's torch like all others of its type, and was supposedly the last NYC steam engine scrapped in 1956.
