During the inter-war years no other monthly magazine matched New Zealand Railways for its commitment to promoting a popular literary culture in New Zealand.
In 1920 New Zealand Railways established it own Railways Studios – the country’s first outdoor advertising studio. The studios produced posters, pamphlets, maps and pictorial postage stamps promoting the services of New Zealand Railways.
The Daylight 'Limited' Express never achieved the iconic status of its overnight counterpart, the Night Limited, but it was a popular feature of the New Zealand Railway's summer timetable in the 1950s.
