Wonderful video, I hope to start scratch building NSWGR locos in O gauge soon.

The 0-6-0 is the NSWGR 19 class. Based on the Stevenson Long Boiler principle, the current design dates from around 1905, as they were rebuilds of a large class of 77 locomotives built from 1877 (Although a group of similar locomotives was delivered to the NSWR from 1865.)
They were built by Beyer-Peacock and are very similar to many long-boilered locomotives from the 1860's and 1870's. Sturdy and useful all the way up until 1972 when Steam was finally withdrawn on the NSWGR.

Thank you for the information.

Your video is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on some 1920's railway centenary tobacco cards and a short clip of the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch miniature railway.
At 1:12 The 0-6-0 Looks British!

It's a NSW Z19 class loco, of british design origins. Google Z19 and NSWGR and you'll find more info.

Excellent video. Is the NSW prototype a 42" gauge railway? Love those see through spokes on the wheels too.

NSW uses the standard gauge of 4'8.5" (4 foot 8 and a half inches)
