Queensland 6D13 class locomotive

The Queensland Railways 6D13 class locomotive was a class of 0-6-2T steam locomotives operated by the Queensland Railways.
== History ==
In 1881, the Queensland Land & Coal Company purchased two locomotives for a proposed colliery on the Burrum coalfields near Maryborough that would join with the Queensland Railway’s network at Torbanlea. After the proposal fell through, they were sold to the Queensland Railways, entering service on the Southern & Western Railway. They were used as shunters.
Per Queensland Railway's classification system, they were designated the 6D13 class, the 6 representing the number of driving wheels, the D that it was a tank locomotive, and the 13 the cylinder diameter in inches.
Lionel (No.70) was purchased by Queensland Rail in 1884, and was used for shunting.
== Boiler explosion ==
It gained notoriety when its boiler exploded at Roma Street Station on 29 August 1898. It was repaired and later written off in 1926.
