Diesel Electric Locomotive 1181
This was the last of 12 of the 1170 series made by Walkers Limited Maryborough, serial No. 69 and put into service by Queensland Rail on 25th May 1958.
It is currently expected to take many years. The first priority is to strip the paint away, repair the rust and then apply a finishing coat of paint to the original QR colours.
