During the mid 1880s the Victorian Railways was in need for a more powerful Suburban Locomotive and in 1887 Kitson and Co of Leeds Engineering England built a 2-4-2 Tank and exhibited at Melbourne in 1888 which was bought by the Victorian Railways afterwards and numbered 426.
In 1889 Phoenix Foundry Ballarat and David Munroo & Co built a total of 70 engines and all entered service from 1889 to 1894, during 1893 the Phoenix Foundry thought of modifying the design into a 0-6-2 Tank for Suburban Goods and Shunting purpose, a total of 5 engines was built and classed 'EE'. In 1896 David Munroo & Co converted two E Class 2-4-2's into EE 0-6-2's which looked sligtly different to the original Phoenix design as they where built without shunter's steps and larger sand boxes. On Delivery from Phoenix Foundry they ran a test train to Geelong then going to Melbourne afterwards with all 5 engines allocated to North Melbourne Locomotive Depot.
This model represents numbers 462 to 470 evens only built by Phoenix Foundry Ballarat painted in 2 Tone Green, these locomotives didn't get reboilered till 1923 onwards with a 170 PSI Boiler, the last getting reboilered by 1934.
These locomotives lasted till 1960. Sadly all of the 5 Phoenix engines where scrapped.
