A photo that would have been taken from a floodlight tower. Although the resolution quality isn't great, there look to be 13 steam locomotives present as well as a diesel shunter and a Vulcan railcar. Today the turntable remains, but the roundhouse has gone. On the right can be seen the branch line to Hokitika which continued on to Ross until 1980. For lots more, see our books. (Pic via Tom Hartill)
