Queensland Railways 1400 class

The 1400 class was a class of diesel locomotive built by Clyde Engineering, Granville for Queensland Railways between 1955 and 1957.

History
In 1955 Clyde Engineering demonstrated an Electro-Motive Diesel G12 locomotive to Queensland Railways who purchased it along with two other demonstrators under construction, and also placed an order for a further 10. The first three were initially numbered 1230-1232, before being reclassified as the 1400 class. They mainly operated in South East Queensland. The first was withdrawn in December 1986.

Two have been preserved:
 * 1400 Mackay Heritage Railway
 * 1407 Queensland Rail Heritage Division, stored at Workshops Rail Museum, North Ipswich
 * 7 similar G12 (New Zealand Railways DA class) locomotives are preserved in New Zealand
