History

This loco was in operation at Habana Sugar Mill in 1891. At an unknown date it was sent to the Bloomfield River Mill in Far north Queensland. In 1947 it was noted as being still on the site and was derelict. In the 1950's locals recalled playing on the abandoned engine as children at the mill site. It was apparently bulldozed and buried.
