---Thanks David for the correction on car 89
Back in those early days of the preservation movements in New Zealand
so much happened that one could not keep track of things and the cars
were still out in their country locations,and of course I was at the
other end of the North Island.
I did go along on a couple of the MOTAT salvage team forays in a
previous life !!!
That car 89 was interesting as it had two different ends, not unlike
a lot of the older Wellington double saloons in later years.
