The 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) narrow gauge Australian Standard Garratt (ASG) of 1943, a 4-8-2+2-8-4 locomotive, was designed during the crisis period of World War II immediately following the bombing of Darwin. As an emergency measure the Commonwealth Land Transport Board commissioned a team of engineers led by Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) Chief Mechanical Engineer, Frederick Mills, to design the new class of Garratt, which was to bolster the inadequate fleet of locomotives on Australia's extensive narrow gauge rail systems.[1] The Australian government had sought to obtain drawings and licenses from Beyer, Peacock and Company but that was denied.
The class of 57 locomotives (out of a planned 65) was designed in 1942 and built from scratch within four months in 1943. Construction lasted until 1945.
The active lives of the ASG was short post war, partly because they were unpopular with crews. Many were placed in storage, and it is to represent this state that the original model <kuid:73150:101186> has been adapted with permission of the creators, ad602000 and nswgr_46class.
