W111
Replacing the Ponton with a design focused on passenger comfort and safety. Wider and squared off, with a large glass greenhouse improving driver visibility. A milestone in car design were front and rear crumple zones for absorbing kinetic energy on impact. All initial models shared the straight-6 engine carried over from the previous generation and capable of accelerating the heavy car to 160 km/h. The W111 spawned a pair of bracketing variants in 1961 : downscale entry-level 4 in-line engined vehicles sharing the W111 chassis and bodies, designated the W110.

Heritage loco T333 and CFCLA's S300 on hire to El Zorro are seen during shunting operations at Junee. The locos are seen preparing to haul a El Zorro grain service later on.
The Victorian Railways S class were built by Clyde Engineering based on the EMD F7 class and introduced from 1957. These 1800hp single ended Co-Co machines were quite successful, and only a third of the 18 strong class have been scrapped, four remain in service and the remainder preserved.
In the early 1990s privatisation arrived and West Coast Railway took over the Melbourne to Warrnambool route using a fleet of B and S class locos as well as regular steam operation of service trains at weekends. WCR ran into difficulties and closed down in the early 2000s, their four S class locos passing to local freight operators.
Here S302 runs into Geelong station with a Warrnambool to Melbourne service in 2002.
This loco is still in service today, with Southern Shorthaul Railroad.

The design work for the coupé began immediately after the approval of the sedan. Special attention was given to improved aerodynamics, with a drag coefficient of 0,34. The SEC luxury coupé was presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1982. The 560 followed 3 years later as the most powerful model, with a new V8 engine producing 300 hp. At the time, the S-Class belonged to the very best available on the car market, especially with this engine. This coupé also had no competition in its market segment. But it came with a hefty price tag - it was more expensive than a Ferrari Testarossa.
