Remarks & Notes 
Ab 663 was retired by NZR in 1969 and purchased by Mainline Steam in 1983. After restoration, 663 returned to mainline in 1997. The train is seen just after arrival with the coaches from Feilding District Steam Rail depot. Due to running out of fuel near Marton the arrival was hours late and the afternoon trips were cancelled.
