This is the fifth part of a series of pages arising from a March 2015 visit to Taiwan. James Waite and Takahide Yamamoto have contributed as indicated. Part 2 - The Alishan Railway's Shays Part 3 - The Alishan Railway's Diesels Part 4 - The Sugar Railways' Steam Locomotives Part 6 - Miscellaneous Sugar Rolling Stock For a list of these diesel locomotives by type and last known location, please see http://citycat.theweb.tw/engsgsl.htm (it starts after the steam locomotives) - link broken 1st November 2018. What I have given below are examples of the types we saw, together with a suitable photograph. In the linked list there are others, most of which are extinct or have just one or two examples left. Unless otherwise stated, all are 6wD and 762mm gauge. While these pictures were taken at the five tourist mills, there are many active (Diema) locomotives at Huwei which appears to be the last working mill on the island.
