Summary

Description

A piece of Invercargill's history is trundling around the Garden City, helping return a sense of normality to Christchurch.

Invercargill Tramways' tram Birney number 15 was rescued by Christchurch-based Heritage Tramways Trust from a Waimatuku property in 2010. They've faced the obvious earthquake-related challenges to be able to restore the tram.

A piece of Invercargill heritage rescued from a life as a sleepout has been restored to its former glory.
