Hi mightgeta4be, the 430 class is South Australia’s version of the 48 class and originally they were narrow gauge units use on the Eyre Peninsula.
I don’t know if they had broad gauge versions but there are plenty of standard gauge versions.
I stand corrected here, but I think you will find the 704 was originally an NSWGR 80 class.
Hi Gregg, I am actually in the process of selling off most of my HO. I am not going to have the room to run both HO and G scale and “IF” I get a Big Boy, it will more than likely only be a static display model.
I actually prefer electrics locos, electrics trains and trams and I’ve been waiting for about 18 months for the new PCC street cars from Aristocrat to be released.
Yep, the 830 class locos are near enough identical (apart from gauge of some of them) to the 48 class. Good spotting!
