The New South Wales 85 class were a class of 10 mainline electric locomotive introduced from 1979 in the state of New South Wales, by the State Rail Authority. They were built by Commonwealth Engineering of Granville, New South Wales[1].
The fleet were based in Lithgow and served coal haulage across the Blue Mountains. When FreightCorp merged into Pacific National, it was decided to withdraw the fleet from service owing to a rising cost in electricity. 8501 & 8507 are the survivors of the fleet when they were saved from scrap. 8501 is owned by the Sydney Electric Train Society, but currently stored at Werris Creek & 8507 is owned by the Dorrigo Steam & Railway Museum and also stored at Werris Creek.
