Down at the Station

摘要

Standing on the platform with notebook and pen in hand, Graeme Carter has observed the following. Also on the platform were Ken Haydock, Alan Spencer, Bruce Taylor, Basil Hutchinson, Bryan Blanchard, Dave Turner and Rob Merrifield. The second earthquake to hit Canterbury in five months occurred near Christchurch on Tuesday 22 February with a force of 6.3 on the Richter Scale. The quake of 4 September 2010 was magnitude 7.1, but the latest quake did more damage as it was centred closer to Christchurch and much shallower.
