[PAR] [TLE] Victorian Railways H class [SEP] The Victorian Railways H class was an express passenger steam locomotive operated by the Victorian Railways from 1941 to 1958.  Intended to eliminate the use of double heading A2 class locomotives on "The Overland" services on the steeply graded Western line to Adelaide, wartime restrictions led to only one locomotive being built.  Nicknamed "Heavy Harry", H220 was the largest locomotive ever built in Australia and the largest non-articulated steam locomotive to run on Australian railways. [PAR] [TLE] The Overland [SEP] The Overland is an Australian passenger train service between Melbourne and Adelaide.  It first ran in 1887 as the "Adelaide Express", but South Australians have always referred to the train as the "Melbourne Express".  It was given its current name in 1926.  Now operated by private company Great Southern Rail, the train completes two return trips a week covering 828 kilometres between the state capitals.  Originally an overnight train, it now operates during the day.
