Returning one more time to the theme of the South Island Main Trunk, here are views of Studholme, or Studholme Junction as it was known until the Waimate Branch, which connected here, closed in 1966.
The Muir and Moodie view (a high res version of which was included in our book New Zealand Railway Memories compiled from the J.D. Mahoney collection) dates from 1906 and the second view is from June 1978. Other views are in the book New Zealand 1950s Steam in Colour compiled from the Derek Cross collection.
Today? Well as the Google satellite view shows, not much remains apart from the main line.
