William Alfred Webb landed in South Australia in 1922. His assignment: to rehabilitate the ailing State-owned railway system. In next to no time he found one very obvious weakness; an inadequate, run down and completely inefficient locomotive fleet. Taking the bull by the horns he right away appointed Fred Shea from Victoria as his Chief Mechanical Engineer, setting Fred on the road to becoming one of Australia's great engineers. The outcome: forty-five steam locomotives and three steam wrecking cranes that set standards of excellence that lasted until the South Australian Railways as a corporate body was finally dissolved on 8 December 1975. Not only did Shea excel as a steam locomotive engineer but during the Second World War (and after) he stood out as a giant in the construction of warplanes, munitions and in due course, diesel-electric locomotives.
