dont have that, but if your interested, QR's old 1300, 1600, 1620 and 2350
class diesel-electrics were made by EE.  However there arent any in service
up here anymore.. but there were some of the 16's preserved in the QR
heritiage fleet, so it would make sense for EE to be still around at
rocklea?  although i dont know for certain.
