Two almost new locomotives were destroyed and many ballast and freight waggons damaged when a "B18¼" class loco collided with a Standard Garrett G51 class loco at Marrawing, 29 km south of Gladstone on the North Coast railway line. The tender of the "B18¼" telescoped into the loco, and the following ballast waggons were piled up on top of it. Wagons further back derailed and rolled down an embankment, ripping up line and sleepers. The driver of the "B18¼" ballast train was injured and died at the scene.

The two engines were written off at a cost of £100,000 (1944 values = $200,000). Both locomotives, ASG G51 and B18 1/4 903, were repaired and
