Remarks & Notes

1431 was built by Clyde Engineering in NSW in 1957 for NZ Railways. It was sold to Steam Incorporated in 1988 who restored and returned it to mainline service in 2009. Here it is seen crossing the Rangitikei River near Marton. The train will later cross the same river twice on viaducts 78m and 81m high hauling the excursion bound for the ski town of Ohakune below Ruapehu (2797m.)
