Built by English Electric, in Queensland in 1966, this 3'6'' gauge 1012 HP diesel electric locomotive is awaiting departure time at the southern terminus of the Weka Pass Railway at Glenmark, Waipara, approximately 40 miles north of Christchurch in New Zealand's South Island. Immaculately restored by its owners, the Diesel Traction Group, it is one of five EE locomotives in their care, the others being products of Vulcan Foundry and Preston works.
