===New Zealand=== [[File:Ba 552 at Parnell.jpg|thumb|[[NZR BA class|NZR B<sup>A</sup> class no. 552]]]] New Zealand's first {{nowrap|4-8-0}} locomotive was built in the [[Addington Railway Workshops]] of the [[New Zealand Railways Department]] (NZR) in 1899 and designated [[NZR B class (1899)|B class]]. Four more were completed that same year and one more in 1901, while [[Sharp, Stewart and Company]] built four more over the next two years. {{Citation needed|date=October 2012}} Ten [[NZR BA class|B<sup>A</sup> class]] locomotives were built by the NZR at its Addington shops between 1911 and 1913, and thirty [[NZR BB class|B<sup>B</sup> class]] locomotives were built by [[A & G Price]] in New Zealand between 1915 and 1918. One each of the B<sup>A</sup> class and B<sup>B</sup> class have been preserved, B<sup>A</sup> no. 552 and B<sup>B</sup> no. 144.
