NZR 4-8-4 Kb at Cass on the Midland Line in August 1941


Another pic (by D. Hinman) in the NZ National Railway Museum collection with a little colorization by us.  Both the Ka and Kb series received what is termed 'streamlining', but the flat to the wind shape would have had the opposite effect, unlike a bullet nose.  Unsurprisingly it was removed in the late 1940s.
