Data from Douglas Colquhoun's entries presented in the Australian national railway museum site: [] (visited 14 October 2003).
These freight locomotives were originally delivered in 1875 (works numbers 1422-1423). They were rebuilt in the year shown and that's the version Colquhoun's data reflects. #32 was condemned in April 1923, but 33 operated for another 11 years.

Small freight locomotives from a well-known Glasgow builder early in its career. Although quite modest in power, they still proved satisfactory enough to last 38 years, being condemned on 11 July 1923.
