The following is a listing of all steam locomotives that have worked on the Port Lincoln Division, to the best of my knowledge. If you have any additions or corrections, I would be glad to
hear from you.
The dates shown are taken from published records, including Steam Locomotives and Railcars of the South Australian Railways (1986, MERM) and from the article in the ARHS Bulletin, August and September 1947, by G.H.Eardley. |
