The Queensland Railways A14 class comprised eight 4-4-0 steam locomotives constructed by the Phoenix Engine Company located in Ipswich during 1894 and 1895 for use by Queensland Railways. In Queensland Rail's system, the letter "A" denoted locomotives with two driving axles, while "14" specified a cylinder diameter measuring 14 inches.

Each locomotive underwent reboilering in 1909, with all units being retired from operation between 1922 and 1929.
