the equivalent to NZR Da is the 1400 class A1A-A1A; the 1450 Is a G12R, an early version of an all axle powered G12 & replaced in Qld by the 1460 G12C & 1502 G22C classes. The Da class G12A was built to Standard EMD plans apart from the handful obtained from Clyde. The cab is an option fro restricted loading gauge railways. in this series the standard model was the G12 Bo-Bo aka G12B of about 17 tons axle load; the option for an axle load of about 14-15 tons axle load was the G12A A1A-A1a, 1400 & Da classes
