Husky Diesel Loco at Oamaru New Zealand

Here we catch the Husky 7908 in Oamaru, we watch it start up and take its train over the crossing from Harbourside towards the penguin colony. Later we see it return, propelling its train under the footbridge.
Huskies are a class of 15 diesel mechanical locomotives built in the late 1950s to early 1960s by Robert Stephenson & Hawthorns Ltd. Most served industrial lines in the UK, although one went to Egypt and a 5 foot 6in gauge loco went to India.
This was the only one exported in New Zealand, being RS&H # 7908, built in Darlington (Northeast England) for the Wellington Meat Export Co. in 1962.
In 2009 the loco moved to Oamaru Steam and Rail. She has since had a gearbox and running gear overhaul, received air brakes and many other improvements.
In addition, two locos have been saved in the UK: # 7901 built in 1958 is preserved and used occasionally on work trains at the Tanfield Railway near Newcastle, and prototype #7900 from 1958 was saved and plinthed by its last owner, AV Dawson transportation in Middlesbrough.
