In 1994 I had the privilege of riding in the cab from Taumarunui to Ongarue when F163 and train set were enroute from Palmerston North to Hamilton. The whole of Taumarunui Primary School rode in the carriages. Space was a premium with three in the cab.
first time iv seen the f on the tracks in over 10 years (i was part of the F163 crew when it was based in palmy north) im now in the king country it bought back fond memory's of the time i was with the crew (i was in palmy over 30 years)
Lovely footage, 163 is a lovely F :)
