|The engine shed is located on a lower level than adjacent  houses and the prevailing wind tends to blow the smoke from the depot over  settled areas.  In order to lessen  smoke nuisance locomotives being lit-up, or put away with fires banked, are  always stabled in the shed so smoke is released through the shed smoke stacks  which are about 12 feet higher than the roof, and smoke is thus lifted above  the houses.

Timaru - - - 20/7/1908 It has been ascertained the cost of shifting siding, including weighbridge and wagon turntable, would be £70 and it is questioned whether the advantage gained warrants the expenditure. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 17/3506 WRD Canterbury S 59237
Timaru - - - 24/7/1908 Improving clearance at the New Zealand Loan & Mercantile Agency Coy Ltd siding is to stand over. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 17/3506 WRD Canterbury S 59238

Timaru – Temuka Railway - 05/1440/1 NZRLS Canterbury S 59243
Timaru - - - 27/4/1909 General manager – the object of selling tickets is to restrict the number of people who enter the station during busy train times – not revenue. Timaru – Temuka Railway - 05/1440/1 NZRLS Canterbury S 59244

Timaru - - - 15/9/1909 The room formerly used as a refreshment room has already a fireplace.  To render it suitable as a general waiting room all that is necessary is the renovation of paint work and the provision of a few seats. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/425/1 WRD Canterbury S 59253
Timaru - - - 28/9/1909 Some fixed benches attached to the walls and supported on brackets so as to allow unobstructed sweeping are to be provided by the Maintenance Branch.  Movable seats if required will be supplied by the Traffic Branch.

Timaru - - - 9/10/1909 One of the turntables at Evans & Coy's private siding, being so far destroyed by corrosion as to necessitate renewal, arrangements were made for a replacing it with a 14 foot from stock at Christchurch.  This turntable was accordingly repaired and forwarded to Timaru.

Timaru - - - 14/10/1909 Outside Delivery Yard – This is situated at a considerable distance from the goods office and should have a delivery clerk to look after receipts.  Nothing has gone wrong in connection of deliveries so far, but it is not satisfactory to have carting going on where it cannot be watched by goods staff. Timaru – Temuka Railway - 05/1440/1 NZRLS Canterbury S 59256
Timaru - - - 17/12/1909 Automatic tablet exchanger apparatus provided. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3337 WRD Canterbury S 59257

Timaru - - - 1/11/1910 Timaru Harbour Board – At meeting held last Friday, the resolution was adopted that from that date, the name of Moody Wharf be officially discontinued, and that the Main Wharf, Moody Wharf, and New Wharf be designated No 1, No 2, and No 3 Wharf, respectively. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/427 WRD Canterbury S 59275
Timaru - - - 18/11/1910 South Canterbury Cold Storage Coy granted siding access. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59276
Timaru - - - 6/1/1911 Timaru Harbour Board – Application for road to give access from Wharf Street to Wharf No 3. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3734/28 WRD Canterbury S 59277
Timaru - - - 7/2/1911 Provision of a new double-dial clock at station. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3734/28 WRD Canterbury S 59278

Timaru - - - 9/6/1911 Application by Harbour Board for a cross-over from left to right, be provided on the Moody Wharf. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/427 WRD Canterbury S 59283
Timaru - - - 14/6/1911 It would be an advantage. No 3 Wharf has such a cross-over, and it is of considerable use in getting wagons from one side of the wharf to the other without recourse to the traverser at the end of the wharf. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/427 WRD Canterbury S 59284
Timaru - - - 11/7/1911 Approved, cost £50. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/427 WRD Canterbury S 59285
Timaru - - - 13/7/1911 Provision of a siding for the Fisherman's Jetty. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3734/28 WRD Canterbury S 59286
Timaru - - - 18/8/1911 John Mill & Coy Ltd's application for lease of railway land hitherto occupied by the Workshops declined. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 00/2275 WRD Canterbury S 59287
Timaru - - - 12/9/1911 There is only room for half a dozen wagons from the Oil Coy's shed door to the end of the short dummy which has been laid in, and this is quite insufficient for the business of receipt of oil shipments of perhaps 20,000 cases.  Consequently it would not be advisable to recognise the tenancy permanently until more siding room has been provided. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59288
Timaru - - - 29/9/1911 Fraser Street traffic has hitherto been delivered at one place, viz, on the Harbour Board quarry line. The Vacuum Coy's tenancy will involve delivery of that firm's traffic at another point, unless we decline to do more than place that Coy's traffic on the Board's quarry line, next to the Westport Coy's traffic. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59289
Timaru - - - 29/9/1911 It does not seem likely that with the siding accommodation provided, the Vacuum Coy can unload a ship's daily output of oil in less than two days, with extra shunts to clear and fill the short piece of siding. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59290
Timaru - - - 29/9/1911 It is understood the Board's quarry line, between Hayes and Fraser Streets, is to be removed from its present site and will be one of the two lines just recently started on Fraser Street near the Vacuum Coy's store. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59291
Timaru - - - 29/9/1911 The consignee's lots are sorted together in each instance. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59292
Timaru - - - 29/9/1911 The Hayes Street siding consists of four roads, two serving the tenants on one side of the street, with a like provision of two roads on the opposite side of the street. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59293
Timaru - - - 29/9/1911 The Westport Coal Coy's traffic will in that case be delivered on the new Fraser Street line (on which the Vacuum Coy's wagons will be placed) when the line is constructed along Fraser Street, so as to serve the Westport Coy.  Fraser Street is not yet formed. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59294
Timaru - - - 29/9/1911 Wagons for the tenants on one side are put in one of the two roads serving that side, and the tenants on the other side are dealt with similarly.  Thus there are two delivery places for the Hayes Street traffic. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59295
Timaru - - - 3/1/1912 Taking additional land for railway purposes. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 3 PWD Canterbury S 59296
Timaru - - - 28/2/1912 As the Association's siding is on the old road reserve the Department could not equitably charge a rental for it.  The same remarks apply to all the private sidings between the station and engine depot. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2560, 99/2224 WRD Canterbury S 59297
Timaru - - - 28/2/1912 The Association's land, as shown on the Government plans of Timaru and presumably on their Crown grant, had a frontage to a one chain foreshore road extending from George Street to Queen Street south of engine depot. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2560, 99/2224 WRD Canterbury S 59298
Timaru - - - 28/2/1912 This road was never formed but has been entirley occupied and so closed by the railway line and sidings. None of the owners of property fronting on it have been compensated and the time which compensation could be claimed has expired many (possibly 30) years since. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2560, 99/2224 WRD Canterbury S 59299
Timaru - - - 5/1912 Goods shed has been widened by 16 feet. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/428 WRD Canterbury S 59300
Timaru - - - 2/5/1912 Existing shed is now getting into bad order. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 01/494 WRD Canterbury S 59301
Timaru - - - 7/5/1912 Erection of a bicycle shed at the engine shed. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3734/29 WRD Canterbury S 59302
Timaru - - - 27/5/1912 For the Hayes Street sidings the wagons for each lessee on the town side are sorted together and put in the order of the leases. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59303
Timaru - - - 27/5/1912 Mill & Coy rarely use the Harbour Board's Siding Right.  They work on our yard side of their sheds. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59304
Timaru - - - 27/5/1912 On the opposite side of Hayes Street there is very little business outside the Westland Timber Coy's. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59305
Timaru - - - 27/5/1912 Outwards shipping traffic from Shaw Savill & Albion Coy's Store for No 1 Wharf is usually taken out by the direct connection with the wharf, and empties are usually drawn from that end of the siding. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59306
Timaru - - - 27/5/1912 The wagons for Shaw Savill & Albion Coy Ltd and National Mortgage & Agency Coy are usually pushed well down the siding until they stand almost opposite each Company's store. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59307
Timaru - - - 27/5/1912 When we want empties we fetch them from any portion to get hold of them. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 05/3076 WRD Canterbury S 59308

Timaru - - - 25/7/1912 Approval to respace sidings on No 1 Wharf to 11 foot centres. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/427 WRD Canterbury S 59311
Timaru - - - 25/7/1912 The sidings were originally spaced at 11 foot centres.  In 1907 the spacing was altered to 15 feet 6 inches and 14 feet, to give room for shunting horses, which it was proposed to use.  At the same time a fourth siding was laid, but horses are not used. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/427 WRD Canterbury S 59312
Timaru - - - 9/8/1912 Removal of shingle from foreshore, via Heaton and Mill Street crossing, prohibited. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3734/29 WRD Canterbury S 59313
Timaru - - - 13/8/1912 The Canterbury Farmers' Co-operative Association of Timaru hold a lease to a site in the Timaru yard. The site is used as a coal depot and is connected by means of a turntable with a railway siding running along the frontage. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2476, 17/5065 WRD Canterbury S 59314
Timaru - - - 24/8/1912 Approval to lay two sidings and a cart road on land recently acquired from the Harbour Board for unloading timber from wagons prior to shipment by steamers. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W 2278, 10/428 WRD Canterbury S 59315
Timaru - - - 29/8/1912 A wharf shunting engine having to run from the nearest wharf to one of these sidings to get some shipping stuff and take it to the wharf, would run a mile and a half between departure from and arrival at No 1 Wharf points. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 17/3506 WRD Canterbury S 59316
Timaru - - - 29/8/1912 The New Zealand Loan & Mercantile Agency Coy Ltd private siding business at Timaru is not large. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 17/3506 WRD Canterbury S 59317
Timaru - - - 29/8/1912 The New Zealand Loan & Mercantile Agency Coy Ltd siding and also the adjacent siding (Dalgety & Coy's ) are in a very cramped point, where a large business could not be worked, and they involve long distance running of shunting engines. Timaru – Temuka Railway - W3199, 17/3506 WRD Canterbury S 59318
Timaru - - - 10/9/1912 The only place where we store stock wagons (we never have any ordinary wagons to spare) in the slack season is in Messrs J Mill & Coy's portion of Harbour Board Hayes Street which is not used by the firm mentioned, and occasionally a few wagons in the approach to the Vacuum Coy's siding in Fraser Street.

Timaru - - - 17/11/1924 Owing to the roads converging outside the shed it is not practicable to provide pits long enough for the AB to be examined completely without being moved, but it would be a considerable improvement if the outside pits on Nos 1 and 2 roads were lengthened thirteen feet at the south end and six feet at the north end, making these two pits thirty nine feet long.

Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 A greater length of truck would hardly allow it to stand between the main line and adjacent siding to landing service, without blocking either one line or the other. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60355
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 A truck of this description might be constructed in such a way that the rails of the main line need not be cut for the cross road. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60356
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 Estimate of cost of the proposed work: Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60357
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 Further siding accommodation has been asked for by Messrs Russell Ritchie & Coy and the Loan & Mercantile Agency.  These companies have each of them recently constructed a large additional store, into which they desire access by rail and other conveniences. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60358
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 Loan & Mercantile Agency – The arrangement is adapted to the turntable asked for by the L & MA and which will give access to their new store for Government wagons, but the principal object of the Company is to obtain a road crossing the main line, to enable them to take produce from their store to within easy reach of the boats, into which the produce may be thus loaded either by hand or crane; without any occasion for turning any of the turntables, or from running over any points at the south end of the station yard – in order to get to the boats. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60359
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 Messrs Russell Ritchie simply desire an additional turntable on their existing siding – if this turntable be granted it is recommended they be compelled to keep it fixed open to the siding when not in actual use. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60360
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 Recommend, however, no Government wagon to be taken across the mai line and only an approved hand truck similar to those in present use, and not more than 12 feet 6 inches in length, be used in this service. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60361
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 The proposed arrangement would involve two additional turntables, a road crossing the main line, and the taking up and relaying about four chains of siding, besides a crossing for cart traffic. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60362
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 There is no doubt this arrangement would be a great convenience to the Company and would tend to facilitate the traffic. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60363
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 This estimate does not include the original cost of the turntables or the permanent way material. Timaru – Temuka Railway - R4, 83/717 WRD Canterbury S 60364
Timaru - - - 7/12/1876 This siding is at present too close to the new store to admit of a wagon turning, and the siding will therefore be required to be shifted about three feet further from the store before a turntable can be used at the required point.
