During the mid 1880s the Victorian Railways was in need for a more powerful Suburban Locomotive and in 1887 Kitson and Co of Leeds Engineering England built a 2-4-2 Tank and exhibited at Melbourne 1888 which was bought by the Victorian Railways afterwards and numbered 426.

In 1889 Phoenix Foundry Ballarat and David Munroo & Co built a total of 70 engines and all entered service from 1889 to 1894, during 1893 the Phoenix Foundry thought of modifying the design into a 0-6-2 Tank for Suburban Goods and Shunting purpose, a total of 5 engines was built and classed 'EE'. In 1896 David Munroo & Co converted two E Class 2-4-2's into EE 0-6-2's which looked sligtly different to the original Phoenix design as they where built without shunter's steps and larger sand boxes.

This model represents numbers 462 to 470 evens only built by Phoenix Foundry Ballaarat painted to the Newer Canadian Red introduced from 1903, these locomotives didn't get reboilered till 1923 onwards with the 170 PSI Boiler, the last didn't get reboilered till 1934. From 1923 all where renumbered to the new block numbering system and reclassed to E and became numbers 353, 355, 356, 357 and 359.

These locomotives where in service till 1960. Sadly all of the 5 Phoenix engines where scrapped.
