3141 Sydney1970 (2)

Shunting in Darling Harbour in 1970 was largely done by steam locos. This class was originally introduced as tank locos as in this image for suburban train working. Later around half the class were converted to tender configuration. After electrification in Sydney the ones which remained as shown here were used in outer suburban work and upgraded the Newcastle and Wollongong suburban service, and various shunting and short distance country work. Sometime in 1970.

This area has been redeveloped into an entertainment precinct. A light rail system has utilised some of the former goods line route.
