Kingston and Lake Wakitipu

I arrived at Fairlight just as the Kingston Flyer was pulling in and got some shots of them turning the engine around on the triangle. Followed it back to Kingston and got some more shots - here it is on the turntable being ready for the next days' trip. And cleaning out the firebox. The driver was a Maori bloke maybe in his 30's and I was astonished to see the fireman was just a teenager. Stayed that night on the edge of Lake Wakitipu and the next morning I headed off towards Cromwell.
