The WAGR ADF class (also known as the Wildflower class) was a six member class of diesel railcars operated between 1949 and 1975 by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR). The ADF class vehicles normally ran together with a pair of ADU class trailer cars, twelve of which were purpose built for such use.[1]
Each member of the ADF class was named after a species of Western Australian wildflower.[1]
