The 14 class are ex DSB MZ class diesels (series III) imported by Independant Rail Australia for NSW workings. They were given the class 14 and kept their original numbers when put into service by IRA. MZ's 1441 and 1444 were severely damaged in transit due to rolling together on the ship in rough weather to Australia and were scrapped after unloading. The remainder of the class are in service in NSW. In mid 2012 Independant Rail was purchased by QUBE Logistics and the entire 14 class was transferred into their ownership.
