Description: The steam locomotive "Ballaarat" in a paddock on the property, Lockville, at Wonnerup, Western Australia. It had been severely damaged in a fire in the building in which it was stored. After many years it was restored and in 2017 it became the centrepiece of a permanent display in the Busselton visitors centre. Original caption reads:First loco to run in W.A.   Dates on Loco     Vickers. 1875.     WATC. 1885. Since the locomotive is known incontrovertibly to have been built in 1871 by James Hunt's Victoria Foundry in Ballarat, those dates would have have been on a component added subsequently.
