    G'day Dan. Is that the same cable car the went up to Kelburn? Got my first drivers license when I was on the Port Dunedin in 1950. The examiner had me stop on some hills that should have had cable cars.

    G'day Dan, which ships with NZSC?

    Been on that cable car, but you can walk up around the side almost to get to the top. There we were expecting something like maybe the Table Mountain one and we got yours!!!!!

    But we had some very enjoyable days there.
    Happy daze John in Oz.
