The DQ and QR class were a class of diesel locomotives in New Zealand and Tasmania Australia. Originally built by Clyde Engineering in the 1960s as Queensland Rail 1460 and 1502 class locomotives they were purchased by Tranz Rail in 1995 to be rebuilt as a cheaper alternative to buying new locomotives.
