The NZR NC class was a class of two steam locomotives built by Baldwin Locomotive Works built for service on New Zealand’s private Wellington and Manawatu Railway (WMR). They did not acquire their NC classification until the publicly owned New Zealand Railways Department (NZR) purchased the WMR and its locomotive fleet.The first member of the NC class was ordered in 1901 and entered service in May 1902 as WMR No. 5.
