From: Godber, Albert Percy, 1875-1949 :Collection of albums, prints and negatives
Reference: APG-1089-1/2-b-F
Description: Group of women and children alongside Climax locomotive 1650, at No 9 timber camp, Ongarue. Photograph taken by Albert Percy Godber circa 1925. Dated from assesment of the women's dresses. This image has been reproduced in three publications (as at February 2003): in "The era of the bush tram in New Zealand" by Paul Mahoney (1998, p 51); in "Rails through the bush" by Bob Stott (1973); and "The bush tram to the mill\" by Bob Stott (1981, p 51).
