 The T class became the largest diesel class on the Victorian Railways and were built by Clyde’s Granville workshops over 13 years from 1955-1968. As a consequence, there are 5 versions but the group is commonly called by the 3 versions of “Flat Top”, “High Nose” and “Low Nose”. They were purchased to serve the states branch lines and to replace the ageing K’s and the newly arrived J class steam locos. This the 2nd variation of the high nose entered traffic between December 1961 – May 1962 and were assigned all manner of jobs with other classes.

For the majority of their life, they were painted Blue & Gold of the Victorian Railways and then, later on, 5 were painted in the V/Line orange and grey. Towards the end of their working lives, they received the ‘chopped’ valance treatment which altered their appearance but maintenance was easier. With the arrival of larger locos in the form of G’s and the aging B class being rejuvenated into the A class most of the fleet was scrapped or withdrawn by 1989. Luckily 2 units have made it into preservation and currently 1 other is still earning its keep with CFCLA.
