C13 Class Dubs, 1883

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  In 1879 Queensland Railways took delivery of two 2-8-0 steam locos built by Baldwin in the United States. In 1883 and 1884 QR took delivery of a further six loco built to the same design but this time the builder was Dubs in the United Kingdom. These locos were originally referred to as ‘Small Consolidations’ but, along with the two Baldwin locos, were subsequently classified as the C13 class, and later still the classification was changed to C13 (Dubs) class to differentiate them from the early Baldwin locos. At the time these locos have introduced the railways north of Brisbane consisted of a number of unconnected lines reaching inland from a number of ports including Maryborough and Bundaberg and it was to these two centers that the Dubs locos were sent. These locos were originally referred to as ‘Small Consolidations’ but, along with the two Baldwin locos, were subsequently classified as the C13 class, and later still the classification was changed to C13 (Dubs) to differentiate them from the early Baldwin locos. Four of the locos went to Maryborough and two went to Bundaberg where they were assigned local numbers. Source: railwayvideos.club/queensland-railways-c13-dubs-class-ste...

  Actually, this was California Northwestern Railway (Not Canadian National), one of two identical engines ordered by that company for use in redwood logging operations.

  Impeccable light management in this view, the way Richie again blocked what would otherwise be blinding sunlight using the sand tower support.
