Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1863 and 1971 the steam locomotive was the best known part of railways, and these steel kings of the steel road touched everyone{u2019}s lives. Stories abound regarding the steam locomotive and what made them special. This is a history of the steam locomotives owned by New Zealand{u2019}s national railway system. Numbering more than a thousand, they were enormously varied {u2013} ranging from little over five tons to almost 148 tons in weight, and from the occasional failure to trend-setting designs of international significance. This book combines the best available research with the largest collection of photographs on the subject ever assembled. Each locomotive is described by class with brief specifications, and information about the work each performed in New Zealand locomotive history.

Book excerpt: "The story of the KB class is more than just that of the locomotives, but the struggle for appropriate motive power on the Midland Line once the Otira tunnel opened. Their evolution came as a result of immense pressure placed upon the Railways Department to find a suitable class of locomotive to succeed against the difficult terrain and ever increasing traffic"--Page 7.
