He may also be locked in a shed or garage around the neighborhood.
The platforms were crowded and there were plenty of smiles as trains chugged up the Glen Afton Line.
It's about 12km southwest of Huntly and was initially built to cart coal, but has been kept alive by enthusiasts.
Waikato lifeguards might have been “bloody active” over summer, but they’re pleased with beachgoer behaviour and don’t have standout rescues to report.

Chinese dragon is a symbol of power, strength, and good luck. It stands for Yang. The dragon is highly respected in Chinese culture. It usually symbolizes power, nobility, honor, luck, and success. It is also a symbol of the Chinese nation, which is why Chinese people refer to themselves as descendants of the dragon.
The dragon is the 5th of the 12 Chinese zodiac animals. The year of the dragon includes 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976, 1964, and 1952… 2024 is the Year of the Dragon. It is the year of the wood dragon. The dragon is a sign of power and energy.
The 2024 zodiac year will be a year of prosperity. Everything will be getting thriving. We look forward to serving you again.
