Seventy years ago

Another holiday

In what we called the "August" school holidays of 1947, when I was 13 and in Year 10, the family had a holiday in Wellington.  We travelled by the Limited Express (7 15 pm departure from Auckland Railway Station) which took all night to reach Wellington (9 am).

You will be interested in the three-page account I wrote at the time detailing the trip from one end of the island to the other.
