What became of the locomotives that were used on the railway? I visited
Darwin in January, and was able to find some remnants of the line (the
Daly St bridge, and that level crossing just on the city side of Goyder
Rd, for example) but I couldn't see any locos anywhere, abandoned or
otherwise... Just curious what became of them.
