Pope John Paul II blesses the Wellington Cable Car


Well that's the impression of this First Day Cover montage at the time of the visit of the Catholic Church's latest saint to NZ in November 1986.  The only problem - as those who have the book Wellington Transport Memories know - is that the Cable Car trailers were removed in 1974 and the whole system was replaced with the present Swiss system in 1979. See earlier posts, and of course the book.
