In use by Colonial Sugar Refining Co. Worked at various Queensland sugar mills owned by the company, finishing its working life at Victoria Mill, Ingham. It was built as a tank loco, but sometime in its working life a tender was added to extend its operating range. New boiler 1932, full overhaul 1965 then became a stand by loco. When finally retired was put on display at Ingham. Removed in 1979 due to condition.

Sold 1982 to a private individual, who moved it to his house in Loftus, NSW. Around 2010 he moved to Junee taking his collection with him. 2016 a start was made on cosmetically restoring this loco. Possibly to original condition without tender
