Price Loco help one for the Kiwi's

Calling NZ forum members.
Can any one help on where decent drawings for a Price V?? locomotive can be found..
This question came up on a news group I belong to too and I thought the Kiwis on the forum may be able to help.
regards John

Hi Tony
Aparrently price only built one V class in 1943
and it is based on a hiesler.
apparently it has been preserved
Does Ogilvie and Co LTD sawmillers west coast mean anything to you
I have been sent a small picture of the beast I can E-mail if it helps

Try this:

Drawing and photos are published in an excellent and inexpensive book on the history of A&G Price. Worth checking out. I bought my copy at Shanty Town, NZ
