WAGR D Class

The WAGR D Class was a type of 4-6-4T tank engine used by the Western Australian Government Railways from 1912. It was used mostly on suburban passenger workings and was the basis for the later Dm and Dd classes of tank engine which continued this role until the end of steam on WA's Railways.
