Welcome to the New Zealand Railways (NZR) WikiProject!

This project was established to facilitate co-operation with regards to Wikipedia's coverage of New Zealand's national railway network. Recognising the unique facets of this isolated rail system, this project seeks to enhance and expand coverage wherever possible while fostering closer communication between participants.

[edit] Goals

To expand coverage of NZR by creating articles on all relevant encyclopaedic topics that do not currently have articles.
To enhance the standard of currently existing articles through the addition of information, pictures, maps, and anything else pertinent.
To provide information of a high calibre; detailed, well referenced, well written, precise, anda accurate.
Establish guidelines for articles related to NZR.

[edit] Scope

This project's scope encompasses all articles related to rail transport in New Zealand. Although its name is "WikiProject NZR", it also covers the Wellington and Manawatu Railway, other NZR-era private operators, and NZR's provincial predecessors and privately owned successors.

[edit] Current issues requiring attention

Axver's proposed Manual of Style for NZR articles.
Whether Wellington and Manawatu Railway Company should be moved to "Wellington and Manawatu Railway", with the current title used for the actual company and the Company-less title used for information about the origins, development, and operation of the actual railway. See the talk page.
