Steamrail is a rail preservation group with a great collection of locomotives -- website. Two of us saw this particular loco in the current movie The Dressmaker starring Kate Winslet, thus this post.
D3 639, a 4-6-0 from 1903, built by Victorian Railways, was used to haul the VR Commissioner's inspection train for many years. When the original D3 639 was withdrawn and scrapped, sister loco D3 658 was renumbered to 639 in its place. Accordingly this preserved locomotive occasionally carries the number D3 658.
