Pleasant Point steams up for visitors from all over country


One-hundred-and-fifty registered Holdens on the cruise stopped at Pleasant Point, and another 20 joined in, with about 330 people in total, Blanchard said.
“It was a non-stop convoy of Holdens. It was quite spectacular. I’ve never seen so many Holdens.”

Fixing the spark arrester on the D16 steam engine is Dowell McLeod, at the Pleasant Point Railway and Museum, over Easter.
The D16 engine was steamed up and attracted plenty of attention. The engine was donated by Pukeuri meatworks and restored within 18 months by society members, Blanchard said.
“It was made in Glasgow in 1878 and was one of New Zealand’s early steam locomotives.”
