The Victorian Railways Z class were three locomotives built in 1893 in Victoria, Australia .

One example of the class survives, at the Scienceworks Museum in Melbourne.

[1] Built in 1893 by the Phoenix Foundry of Ballarat, the first two were 2-4-0T locomotives which had their full length covered in with an extended cab in the style of a road tramway motor.

It was the first of 536 locomotives[2] built by the new enlarged railway workshops at Newport.

[2] After spending many years at the South Dynon Locomotive Depot, Z 526 was withdrawn in June 1978, and between 1980 and 1985 the locomotive was restored at Newport Workshops to its 1893 side tank configuration, and was donated to Museum Victoria in 1992.
