'Australian Locomotive Rosters' was first started by Brad Peadon and Daven Walters in 2000. It took the form of a book that we had published through Railmac. This website is compiled by Brad Peadon, in a joint effort with Bradly Coulter and Daven Walters. Recently we trialed some fleetlists on the main 'Semi Retired Foamer' website. Such was the popularity, we have decided to move them to their own site. Initially, we will were sticking with the SRF theme of covering locomotive types that were around in the 80s and 90s. However we are now beginning to expand our coverage.

Now Open: 'Australian Locomotive Rosters' group. This will be a contributor only group to both share latest fleet changes and help us to update..

Home of the Australian Locomotive, Railcar & Tram (Warning: maybe even ferries).

The Brad's would like to thank our rapidly growing list of ALR contributors for your generosity sharing with all of us!

101

On delivery, 101 and 102 were simply numbered 1 and 2 in the illuminated number boxes for a short time.
It is also interesting to note that the two jumbos were delivered numbered in the reverse of what they became. This is due to the BHP Pt Kembla custom of numbering in the same order as their originally carried numbers.
44229 > Delivered as 102 > Changed to 101
44233 > Delivered as 101 > Changed to 102























Later in their lease, both Jumbos lost an end logo.

103

103 being rebuilt at Junee.




On delivery, 103 was simply numbered 3 in the illuminated number boxes for a short time.
