Permission (Reusing this file) |
Copyright expired in 1999 in New Zealand as Godber had been deceased for fifty years. |
Additional information | Fair use rationale for any countries where copyright may still apply for NZR E class (1906) article: unique photograph of E 66 by virtue of being the first. Rare, as only a few photographs of E 66 exist and it was the only locomotive of its type ever built. Cannot be reproduced today, as E 66 was withdrawn from service in 1917 and subsequently dismantled and dumped. |
