Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 According to our original plans a ballast siding left the main line opposite Usk Street, this siding was removed in 4/1881.  The old chainage book confirms the fact the siding was actually in. Oamaru Section - W1, 48/48 PWD Otago S 37715
Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 Ballast was sent to the Ngapara Branch in 1885.  The siding was apparently taken out again and in 1895 the question of obtaining shingle for concrete work was again raised, and in 1897 a siding was again put in and used for ballast purposes and lifted in 1902. Oamaru Section - W1, 48/48 PWD Otago S 37716
Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 It is evident the siding referred to in correspondence of 1882 is not the siding opposite the present station but was a siding taken from the old station yard to get ballast from between the mouth of lagoon for concrete purposes. Oamaru Section - W1, 48/48 PWD Otago S 37717

Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 The points were removed for use on the Ngapara Branch in 4/1881 and it is possible the siding was not used for a year or two before that. Oamaru Section - W1, 48/48 PWD Otago S 37719
Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 A ballast siding left the main line opposite Usk Street and was removed in 4/1881.  The old chainage book confirms this siding was actually put in. Oamaru Section - W4069, 48/84 WRD Otago S 37720
Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 The points were removed for use on the Ngapara Branch in 4/1881 and it is possible the siding was not used for a year or two before that. Oamaru Section - W4069, 48/84 WRD Otago S 37721

Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 Backshunt off third loop to goods shed which crosses extension of Coquet Street.  Branches into two backshunts part-way past crossing – one into Gas Works building. Oamaru Section - W4439, 24354 WRD Otago S 37726
Oamaru - - - 29/12/1916 On station side of main line two backshunts come off main line between Coquet and Weir Streets.  One backshunt runs alongside Humber Street to wagon turntable, with a siding off this crossing Humber Street. Oamaru Section - W4439, 24354 WRD Otago S 37727
