According to Triumph of the Narrow Gauge - more than 1,300 QLXs were eventually built, construction ending in 1977.
There were also 275 QGX grain hoppers (eventually reclassified QGA).
100 QFX container/flat wagons were built in 1965-1966. These had timber decking and were also used to carry machinery and vehicles, particularly armoured vehicles, such as the M113s, between Brisbane, Glen Geddes and Townsville. More QFX and QFCs were built in the 1970s before construction shifted to the P and B series skeletal container wagons in 1980s. The decking was eventually removed on many QFCs.
