In service from 1950 to 1972. Was put on display outside Channel 7 (Australian television company) Tuart Hill studios in Perth. In 1987 it was loaned to Bennet Brook Railway and displayed at their railway station in Whiteman Park. Later it moved to Ian Willis Engineering Riverdale works at Burswood, Perth to be restored along with WAGR 1213 to work steam specials. The ban on enthusiast steam specials, may have stopped this work as 735 sat for many years outside the works. In 2013, after 15 years at Willis Engineering the remains of 735 was moved by road to Alumina Junction just south of Pinjarra where the HVTR branch line Dwellingup to Pinjarra ends. 735 is just the stripped boiler sitting on the frames and a flat wagon that I presume was the tender. The HVTR website, under news 2013, has photos of the move.
