Palmerston North NZ railyard, 1937

"Palmerston North Main Street Railway Station and yards. The Railway Hotel, Cafe De Paris etc on the right."  (A Wellington Evening Post photo from Manawatu Heritage, colourized by Pahiatua & district pics old & new.) 

The Railway Hotel is still there, the railway was shifted west with the Milson Deviation in 1963 and the land is now a park.  For lots more, see our books.
