The Leyland railmotor (also known at the ''Double ended railmotor'') was introduced by the Victorian Railways in 1925 after the success of the A.E.C. railmotor the Victorian Railways wanted to build a more powerful and comfortable railmotor. Four of the railmotors were built by the Victorian Railways for use in Victoria mostly on the services to Echuca, Cohuna, Whittlesea and Tallangatta with the occasional trip to Mansfield and Maffra. The Leylands remained in service until the last two were withdrawn in July 1954 after the introduction of the Walker railmotors. The Victorian Railways also built two similar railmotors for the Tasmanian Railways in 1925. 53RM is preserved at the Daylesford Spa Country Railway, it is planned to return it to service when time and funds permit. ==See also== * 102hp Walker railmotor * 153hp Walker railmotor * 280hp Walker railmotor 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leyland railmotor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
