Preservation
No JB class locomotives were preserved, although the tender from JB 1203 is held by Steam Incorporated. In addition, preserved J class locomotive No. 1236 has been restored as a JB class oil burner by its owners Mainline Steam, although this particular locomotive spent its entire NZR career as a coal-burning J Class. Preserved locomotive J 1211, also owned by Mainline Steam, has been converted to oil burning in the same manner as the JB class, but has not been re-classified to reflect that change.

Famous quotes containing the word preservation:
“The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
