South Australian Railways Ga class

Steam and Early Locomotives

The South Australian Railways Ga class was a single locomotive built in 1874 by Robert Stephenson and Company for the Adelaide Glenelg & Suburban Railway Company, where it entered service as No. 3. It was sold in November 1881 to the Glenelg Railway Company, which kept it as its No. 3. On 16 December 1899 it entered service on the South Australian Railways as Ga class No. 157, after the SAR purchased the Glenelg Railway Company. It was rebuilt at Islington Railway Workshops in November 1902 and condemned in May 1915, and it was scrapped in 1922.
