]]> This revised edition (updated from 1956) showcases 160 different kinds of New Zealand locomotives. Beginning with the broad gauge “Pilgrim” that puffed from Christchurch to Ferrymead in 1863, it traces the evolution of the steam locomotive in New Zealand through the “Ten-wheeler” and “Pacific” era to the sleek 4-8-2s and 4-8-4s of the 1950s. It also describes the electric and diesel electric motors as well as the long-forgotten and often unique locomotives that served some of the bush tramways, quarries and construction projects. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With maps, index to locomotives and index to locomotive builders. 174 pages.
