Built in 1926 and painted all-over black, this Garratt locomotive was first run on the Moe to Walhalla line, until the line closed in 1954. After an overhaul it was relocated to the Colac to Crowes line and remained there until that line closed in 1962. In 1964 it was sold to the Puffing Billy Preservation Society as a static display until 1986 which saw the commencement of restoration and had been undergoing rebuilding ever since in the Belgrave workshops until 2004 when it triumphantly returned to service, restored to its 1946 to 1954 condition and all-over black livery.
