The Commonwealth Railways K class was a class of 2-8-0 freight locomotives built in 1916 by North British Locomotive Company, United Kingdom, for the Commonwealth Railways, Australia.

History

In order to operate freight trains on the then under construction Trans-Australian Railway, Commonwealth Railways ordered eight locomotives of the same design as the New South Wales Government Railways' T class (later the D50 class), but with higher capacity tenders.[1][2]

All were delivered between March and June 1916. Most had been withdrawn by the early 1950s with the last withdrawn in March 1952 after dieselisation.[1][2]
