DS202 arrived from Wellington under its own power on 29th Dec 1986.  Then wearing TMS No 42. DS202 was a product of the steam age. Able to move 1000 tonnes on the level she repaced a small Price shunter making depot shunting much more efficient.  Having a good air compressor made carriage brake tests easier.
