  New Zealand Railways locomotive specification book

  Visual Materials

  A bound volume containing specifications, diagrams, and photographs of steam locomotives used by the New Zealand Railways Department (NZR), as well as predecessors such as the Wellington and Manawatu Railway Company on the North Island of New Zealand. Includes diagrams and specifications for 47 different locomotive classes, 38 of which are accompanied by cyanotype photographs of representative locomotives. The book is organized according to a classification system developed by NZR, with each model diagram containing a list of the locomotive numbers (the highest number being 665) that match the class type (ranging from the A Compound-X compound). Most of the listed locomotives were built by the Addington Railway Workshops and the Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, though other identified manufacturers include Avonside; Hillside; Manning Wardle; Nasmyth, Wilson; Petone; Rogers; Sharp, Stewart.
