I have tried to do this, but for reasons that are not clear to me, this has proved impossible. I will report this to the webmaster on your behalf, but he is very ill at the moment, so it may be a while before this can be changed. I am not too well myself right now undergoing loads of hospital visits and tests. Please be patient.

NSW should be changed to New South Wales to be consistent with the rest of Australia

All its working life was spent at Pikes Hill Quarry working the State Quarries tramway which ran from Pikes Hill to Kiama Harbour where the stone was loaded on ships. Was number PWD 35 (the second locomotive that carried this number.) The Quarry produced crushed Blue Metal stone used mainly for Sydney roads, as a base or mixed with bitumen as a road surface. Also used as railway ballast. The tramway closed in 1941, when the last ship running between Kiama & Sydney was commandeered for naval service. Does not appear to have worked after this.

In 1958 moved to Marsden Museum of Historic Engines. When the museum closed in 1974 it was sold to a private individual. In 1985 sold to Kiama Light Railway Group. The groups plans to operate a tourist railway did not succeed. In 1998 it was donated to Illawara Light Railway. Restoration is undergoing at Albion Park
