MRWA F class

Diesel and Electric Locomotives

The Midland Railway of Western Australia F class was a class of seven diesel locomotives built by English Electric at Rocklea for the Midland Railway of Western Australia in 1958. The design was based on the South Australian Railways 800 class. The seven locomotives entered service with the Midland Railway in 1958 and, together with the rest of the company assets and operations, were taken over by the Western Australian Government Railways in 1964. The first, F42, was withdrawn in November 1984. Hotham Valley Railway has preserved F40 and F44, Rail Heritage WA has F43, and F41 is on display at Moora.
