The NZR La class were a class of steam locomotive used by the New Zealand Railways Department and the New Zealand Midland Railway Company. They were built by Nasmyth Wilson in 1887 for New Zealand Midland Railway Company, and were taken over by NZR in 1900, when the government acquired the incomplete Midland line. Three of the locomotives were named - Reefton, Christchurch and Nelson. A number of L class locomotives were later rebuilt as 'La' class also.
