Churchman and Tony Hurst, ''The Railways of New Zealand: A Journey Through History'' (Auckland: HarperCollins, 1991), 206.〕 The line is still operational today. ==Construction and early history== Built by the Dunedin and Port Chalmers Railway Company Limited, the line was approved by and constructed under the auspices of the Otago Provincial Council, not the national government. However, it was built to the recently adopted national track gauge of , and it was the first line in the country with that gauge to open, on 1 January 1873.〔 The line was formally opened by Sir George Bowen, former Governor of New Zealand, on a farewell trip prior to his transfer to Victoria.〔Otago Witness, 31 March 1898, ("Chronological Index of the Settlement of Otago: 1873" ), accessed 13 October 2007.〕 The first locomotive to run on the line - and the first gauge locomotive to operate in New Zealand - was the E class ''Josephine'', a double Fairlie steam locomotive.〔Eric Heath and Bob Stott, ''Classic Steam Locomotives of New Zealand'' (Wellington: Grantham House, 1993), 24.〕 whose local popularity ensured she was retained beyond her retirement from service on the railways in 1917 and is preserved today in the Otago Settlers Museum in Dunedin.〔Weka Pass Railway, (E 175 Josephine ), accessed 12 June 2007.〕 Much of the Port Chalmers line is now part of the Main South Line from Christchurch to Dunedin. When the first section of the main line, from Dunedin to Waitati, opened in December 1877 a junction was established at Sawyers Bay.〔Churchman and Hurst, ''The Railways of New Zealand'', 180.〕 The section from Dunedin to Sawyers Bay became part of the Main South Line, while the remaining two kilometres to Port Chalmers became the Port Chalmers Branch. In 1880 the line was vested in the newly established New Zealand Railways Department, and the private company dissolved. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Port Chalmers Branch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
