The NZR KA class of 1939 was a class of mixed traffic 4-8-4 steam locomotives that operated on New Zealand’s railway network. They were built after the success of the K class to meet the increasing traffic demands of the New Zealand Railways Department. The locomotives first appeared with distinctive streamlining mainly to hide their ACFI feedwater heater systems.
