The WAGR Dd Class was a class of tank engine steam locomotive used by the Western Australian Government Railways between 1946 and the end of steam on Western Australia's suburban railway network.
The Dd type tank engines were based on the earlier Dm Class which were in turn a reconstruction of the earlier WAGR D Class tank engines, using components of the old E Class tender engines. All of the D-type tank engines featured a 4-6-4 wheel configuration

Famous quotes containing the word class:
“We believe that Carlyle has, after all, more readers, and is better known to-day for this very originality of style, and that posterity will have reason to thank him for emancipating the language, in some measure, from the fetters which a merely conservative, aimless, and pedantic literary class had imposed upon it, and setting an example of greater freedom and naturalness.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
