Description
Work on Ramsay Extension to Oamaru breakwater. Locomotive purchased by Harbour Board in 1934 to transport breccia stone from quarry to create extension. Work began on the project in 1936 and ceased in 1944. (The scheme was ultimately abandoned due to the withdrawal of the government's subsidy and the erosion of the extension.)
