for the motor-head: a quarter scale old gas pump little cupboard and clock

"The first gas pumps were built in the 1880s by the Bowser Company in Fort Wayne, Indiana, followed in 1898 by pumps that could pull fuel from an underground tank. This beautiful antique replica gas pump has a working clock and is soldered, hand-shaped, and hand-painted in red. The decaled insignia and painted details give more of an authentic look. Intricate details are portrayed in the text, license plates, and metal wiring. It is made of iron and carefully handcrafted with an average of forty man-hours to complete. A stunning antique gas pump to display in your home or office."

a pair of NZR Dg class diesels with a passenger train at Waitakere, west Auckland, circa 1970

It may have been a suburban train as far as Helenville. The electrified Auckland system currently ends at Swanson station. Waitakere station was removed from the commuter network in 2015 because the nearby tunnel is too small for electric infrastructure, making it too expensive to upgrade. Passengers must switch to other transport at Swanson. For lots more, see our books.
