Kings of the Iron Road: Steam Passenger Trains of New Zealand by J.D. Mahoney

This book describes many of the lines that made up New Zealand's extensive railway network when it dominated the country's transport services for nearly fifty years, a period that coincided with the golden age of steam locomotives. These engines and the trains they hauled were an integral part of New Zealand life. They provided intercity transport for businessmen and politicians, a trip to town for rural housewives, and transport for commuters, schoolchildren, holiday makers, and sports teams. This book brings back the magic of the great days of steam in New Zealand. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos whose captions are filled with information. With maps.
