Locomotives
SAR T Class 4-8-0
	78 were built between 1910 and 1917 specifically for the Broken Hill-Port Pirie ore trains where they dominated until the mid 1960s. They were regarded as one of the most successful SAR steam locos. 6 were sold to the Tasmanian Government Railways (TGR), a few were transfered to other SAR narrow gauge divisions and 5 were temporarily converted to broad gauge (5ft 3in, 1600mm) during a shortage of broad gauge locos. The vast majority saw out their lives on the SAR Northern (Peterborough) Narrow Gauge Division. The last examples were withdrawn from service in the early 1970s.
Consumes: Coal and Water
On the DLS as   SAR T Class Loco (individual running numbers) SAR T Class Coal Tender (individual running numbers)
SAR Y Class 2-6-0
	129 entered service on the SAR narrow gauge systems between 1885 and 1889, some where purchased second hand. They became the backbone of the SAR narrow gauge systems for many decades. The last was withdrawn from service in 1970. The class was widely used by other narrow gauge systems.
Consumes:
On the DLS as   <kuid2:353810:141:3> SAR NG Yx 141 <kuid2:353810:100164:1> SAR NG Tender Type A
SAR 300 Class 4-8-2+2-8-4
	The ASG (Australian Standard Garratt) narrow gauge locos were built from 1943 to 1945 as an emergency measure to aid the war effort. 6 were purchased second hand by the SAR in the early 1950s and were designated the 300 class. They were to fill a loco shortage for the Broken Hill to Port Pirie ore trains. The 400 class locos had been ordered for this service but their delivery had been delayed. The 300 class entered service in the SAR in 1953/54 and all were found to be in poor condition. The class was condemned in February 1956.

SAR 400 Class 4-8-2+2-8-4
	10 of these oil fired Garratts were purchased in the 1950s specifically for the Broken Hill-Port Pirie ore trains and the Leigh Creek coal trains. Most had been withdrawn by the mid 1960s. The last was withdrawn from service in 1970.

SAR 620 Class 4-6-2
	10 were built in 1937-1938 for use on the broad gauge (5ft 3in, 1600mm) network. They operated on all but the lightest of branch lines. All had been withdrawn from service by 1969 but one, No. 621, still operates on the Heritage Victor Harbour Line. Another, No 624, is on display in the National Railway Museum.

SAR 830 Diesel
	An ALCo DL531 diesel that was once common, in a variety of forms, on all Australian railways. The 830 class locos first appeared in the SAR in the 1960s. By 1970 they had 45 units in 3 different gauges (narrow, standard and broad), 13 of them were narrow gauge. They are still in operation on the SAR today but several have been remodelled by redesigning the "nose" at the cab end creating a continuous front window across the width of the cab to provide better driver vision. The narrow gauge units operated in the Peterborough Northern and the Eyre Peninsular Divisions and were mostly used to haul mineral and ore trains. The models used here are actually standard gauge (4ft 8½in - 1435mm) as no versions with narrow gauge bogies are available on the DLS.
Consumes:
On the DLS as   <kuid:523:1057> SAR 830 Class

Motor Coaches
SAR SMC (Steam Motor Coach)
	Affectionately known as the "Coffee Pot", the SMC consists of an engine unit and a passenger coach. The coach is attached to the loco by a pivot beneath the firebox and the loco cab floor is part of the coach frame. Only two SMC units were built. SMC 1 spent its entire working life (1905 - 1932) based at Quorn where it ran weekly mail and parcel services to Hawker. It was also used on weekend passenger charters as far as Port Augusta and Orroroo. After the line to Hawker was transferred from the SAR to the Commonwealth Railways (CR) in the early 1920s it was reclassified as CR NJAB 1. In 1932 it was placed into storage at Quorn and then on static display at Alice Springs station. In 1984 it was returned to Quorn and restored to full operating condition. SMC 1 is the only known working example of its type in the world. It is currently used for passenger tourist excursions on the Pichi Richi Railway between Quorn and Woolshed Flat.
Consumes:

RM Railmotor and PL Trailer
	"Borrowed" from Queensland Rail (QR) but it does very vaguely (if you squint) resemble the SAR 75 Class Railcars that operated in the division. They were used throughout the SAR Narrow and Broad Gauge networks from the 1920s to 1969 when they were withdrawn from service.
