The Da class were ordered as an improved version of the standard D class and was built by the same manufacturer that being Clyde Engineering of Granville, Sydney, New South Wales. The Da were usually found on wheat trains over the Midland Railway, being based at Forestfield and Narngulu. In 2000 all Da's passed into the ownership of the Australian Railroad Group (ARG) after Westrail's sale. All but two were exported to South Africa.
