Production began in 1979 and continued until 1991, with a major update in 1985. The sedans were available as S, SE and SEL models, the latter featuring a wheelbase extended by 14 cm. Buyers could choose from 4 petrol engines offered in 13 power variants. Important new safety technologies, such as electronically controlled ABS, were introduced. It was also one of the first cars to undergo highly comprehensive crash tests. The excellent characteristics and high build quality led to enormous commercial success, with a total production of 818.063 units. Bruno Sacco was responsible for the design.

For the 2013 'Diesel Day' event at Trainworks, CFCL Australia supplied two 1957-vintage S Class locomotives to represent modern diesel operations. After the initial amusement that these locomotives were in-fact older than many of the exhibits, one must realise that the pair is an excellent representation of modern operations in Australia - companies are still using and relying on these old veterans for day to day operations, and they're still a very relevant part of the scene.
S311 was placed on display in the "Amphitheatre Road" outside the museum for people to inspect.
S311 and RL309 depart Goobang Junction with 8M25 loaded ARTC ballast train from Goonumbla to Broken Hill (discharging west of Bogan Gate).
A lucky find at a little shop in Wales which stocked a lot of old diecast cars. I'd forgotten Matchbox did a S-Class of this shape; I don't think they're all that common.
