45 Class Co-Co diesel electric

The 45 class were a continuation of the 44 class , using the same basic engine under a hood body, rather than the streamlined 44 class design. There were 40 of these units, entering service between 1962 and 1964. Like the 44 class, a similar model was introduced on the SAR (the 600 class , q.v.). Intrigingly, I saw very few of them during my years in Sydney, which explains why there are very few photos in this section!
