Lady Barkly
1861 Locomotive engine designed by James R. Davies and built under the supervision of William Errington by Hunt and Opie. Designed to run on wooden rails.
Sent to New Zealand and used initially on the unsuccessful Invercargill Railway. The locomotive did not suit the wooden rails, but was later used on a bush tramway after being converted to an 0-4-0 and re-gauged.
Originally built at the "Irish" broad gauge of 5'3", she was converted to the standard gauge of 4ft 8½ inch for the Southland "Wooden Railway", then finally converted to the narrow 3'6" gauge.
Later the engine was converted to drive a sawmill
