Bang, clunk, thud, thud, thud, thud, clang, bonk,bonk, bonk,bonk.. Then repeated to leave the table..... assuming of course, the road is lined up....

So the loco is J1234... so not the 1980's, only steam loco to work over to Greymouth in the 1980's was J1211 and that would have been only from 1988 onward.
So a quick google put the photo as November 1993 when it did a south island trip for the group that operates it.
