Otago Central Railway [34A]: Clyde 1977

As noted in my previous post this aerial photo holds a crucial piece of detail regarding to the Clyde railway station dating from March 1977. I have had previous scans done of photos from the same aerial survey, partly to look for the NZED siding. Now it seems the location of this siding was near the MOW sidings that were installed for the Clyde Dam project. This aerial photo at hi res has been ordered from Archives NZ and I hope to take a look at it next week, it is really the final piece of the puzzle in terms of writing the article. This week has been pretty slack in terms of any sort of writing so next week I will have to wind things up again pretty hard to make sure I meet the deadline.
