Otorohanga District Mayor Max Baxter addressed the crowd of about 450 people as well as the 150+ on-board the train when a wreath, to be placed on the memorial, was presented to two nieces of the driver lost in the disaster. After leaving the Otorohanga station, the memorial train paused at the southern end of the town near the Countdown Supermarket, so that the residents of Beattie Home and Retirement Village could see the train. A nice gesture for two ex NZR workers who live at Beattie Home. The station at Otorohanga had been decorated by a small group lead by David Dowd, Leigh Peglar and Dianne Porter who had commenced their efforts at 6am.

And it’s now in New Zealand – the first sighting has been reported in Kerikeri.
If you see it, DO NOT TOUCH OR DISTURB THE PLANT. Please take a photo and call us immediately on 0800 80 99 66.
