After six years of work, the Lumsden Heritage Trust is on the cusp of excavating two 1885 steam locomotives from the Oreti River. The pair are thought to be the last of their kind in the world. Trust chairman John Titter explains to Jesse how much hard work has gone into getting them back on dry land.
