The 44 class could be found almost anywhere on the NSW rail network. This ranged from trains such as the Indian Pacific to freight services. The class also have a cab at both ends. Later in life, many of the class were based at Broadmeadow, and worked in the north and northwest of the state. A couple of the class have been transferred to Austrac, and others to Great Northern . Nearly all were withdrawn by the end of 1994, and most of these were scrapped later, following a large auction. Five of Lachlan Valley Railway's 44s are used by Independent Railways of Australia (LVR). A final note is that 44100 was the last of the DL500 model built.
