A South Canterbury man is on a 2-year journey to restore one of the last remaining original Southerner Express buffet rail carriages to its former glory.
An annual Pleasant Point Labour Weekend fair may have attracted strong numbers on Sunday because of the cancellation of other markets in the region, one stallholder says.
Stallholders are rejoicing as another carriage will be added to Pleasant Point's train to ensure social distancing and allow the Steam and Craft Fair to ahead.
