The Victorian Railways F Class locomotives were 0-6-0 diesel-electric shunters.

Initially the F Class classification was given to Steam Locomotive Shunters. In 1951 the (new) F Class were the first ever diesel locomotives to be introduced to the Victorian Railways. Sixteen of these locomotives were purchased in 1951, 1959 and 1971. These locomotives were built by English Electric at the Dick Kerr Works, in the United Kingdom. The diesel locomotives acquired in 1959 and 1971 were purchased from the State Electricity Commission of Victoria.

The design is similar to that of the British Rail Class 11.
