In the 1920s, the Victorian Railways built an express passenger locomotive for the express run from Melbourne to Albury (where passengers changed trains – and gauge – to continue on to Sydney). These were the first three-cylinder locomotives designed in Australia.
Four locomotives were built between 1928 and 1930. In 1937/38 they all were streamlined in blue and gold livery for the new “Spirit of Progress” service. Tenuis is currently building the streamlined version. I like the lines of the original, and as a bonus, the locos were painted in a red livery from 1934, unlike so many VR locos which were plain back.
The initial boiler design and cab are from Teunis’s design. I just got the loco finished in time for this weekend, although there are a few more details I may add later. It ran well on it’s first outing other than the cow catcher falling off a few times.

W112
The high-end W112 was a luxury saloon based on the W111 chassis but with exclusive features, elaborate appointments and the Mercedes 300d Adenauer's fuel-injected 3-litre "big block" M189 6-cylinder engine - at the time the company's largest. Dubbed the 300 SE, it was given many standard power features, air suspension and a high level of interior and exterior trim.
