WAGR F class (1893)

The WAGR F class were a single-member class of 2-4-2 side tank steam locomotive operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR).

The F class was the result of the rebuild involving E class double-fairlie No. 20, where one half was adopted to drive machinery at Fremantle workshops, and the other half was rebuilt into a side tank engine for use on Fremantle Long Jetty as a shunter.

No. 20 was rebuilt in 1892 and entered service in early 1893 before being sold in 1899.

No. 20 was sold to the Jarrah Timber & Wood Paving Corporation Ltd for use on the timber line at Worsley, this company became part of the Millars Karri & Jarrah Coy in 1902, with No. 20 being stored in 1905 in Perth until being scrapped soon after.
