The majority of Western Australian steam locomotive classes were operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR).
Regularly scheduled steam working ceased on WAGR mainline operations after 1971 - with only special excursion or enthusiasts trains being hauled by steam after that time.
Many private organisations also operated steam locomotives in Western Australia.
