Eimco (often associated with mining equipment) produced a small number of locomotives for the Queensland sugar industry, notably a batch for Marian Mill in 1990.

History

Eimco's contribution to the industry is concentrated around a specific order for Marian Mill and South Johnstone. These were modern, bogie-drive units delivered in 1990.
