Dunedin is one of the “must visit” places on New Zealand’s South Island. There is the highly scenic “Otago Peninsula” with penguins, albatross, New Zealand fur seals and much more to see, as well as two world class train rides starting from Dunedin’s magnificent station on most days.
In this video we enjoy awesome vistas across pristine sandy beaches normally reserved for the driver/engineer as our train makes its way along a narrow ledge cut into cliffs high above the turquoise sea and white sandy beaches far below.
I owe a massive thank you to Dunedin Railways for allowing me to place a camera in the driver’s cab for both the outward and return legs between Dunedin and Waitati.
I’ve just read about the tours offered by Dunedin Railways, they take New Zealand rail based holidays seriously, not just the stunning Taieri Gorge line, but the whole of the South Island. Please click on this link to see how Dunedin Railways can show you the scenery only rail passengers get to see - www.dunedinrailways.co.nz/our...
Don’t tell my wife, but now I’ve seen the holidays on offer, I’m already planning a return trip to South Island.
Recording Date - 5th February 2019
Track Gauge - 3ft 6in (1,067mm)

I lived at The Gums - 23.22 for 15 years, had the train go by my back fence everyday, still miss it - Can still see our little shed where the train passengers would board/alite before the road went all the way to the beach (1970's) and the people who'd stay in the cribs at the Gums would catch the train to go to work while the wife and kids would spend the day lying on the beach and enjoying the summer . . we use to fossick up and down the tracks and we'd find lots of house foundations from the mill workers there in the 1900's to 1930's - and the track had been built in the 1880's - fond memories...

@@Timsvideochannel1 yep - thats our shed - Trev Mira, who was born in the farmhouse at the bottom of the hill and is an ex train driver and lives just down from the shed - he's one of the 3 Maori families who own the land - and has some wonderful memories from his days at Purakanui - walking thru the skeleton of a blue whale that'd been harpooned and 'dismembered' at the old whaling station, his dad playing piano accordian, which he brought back from Italy after WW2, at the 'Yukon Hall' across from the purakanui station while locals danced and socialized and his great grandmother who lived in the cave at Kaikai beach in the 1900's - I'm now in Westport, back with the 'clan' and living near the railway line that the coal trains use - counted 36 full wagons - each weighing 70 tons, on their way to China today . .

@@treborifThanks for sharing those memories, they made fascinating reading, that kind of local history it's difficult to find anywhere else. I live in the UK where we closed our mines and shut our coal fired power stations without building any new nuclear facilities. Now we rely on gas from Norway, electricity from France, wood pellets from Canada and when the wind blows we get a little energy from our own windmills. The energy bill for my company will be seven times higher than it was at the same period last year. Most goods in the UK now have "Made in China" stamped on them. That coal train, the contents of which are destined for China along with large number of coal trains doing the same in Queensland is a stark reminder of the madness of today’s world. If moving to New Zealand was a realistic option for me and my family, I'd take it. Thanks again for sharing those moments of history. Cheers. Tim.

Hi, it is long way to New Zealand, although it is easy to drive around once you are there. Dunedin Council are doing a great job keeping tourist trains running long after KiwiRail threw in the towel. New Zealand cries out for tourist trains like those found in Switzerland, sadly I don't think it will happen without leadership and subsidy from the government. This train is running along a short section of the line from Dunedin to Christchurch, it is extremely scenic, but apart from the occasion special there are no public service trains between these two major tourist centers. Kiwirail do run three long distance passenger trains, but they are infrequent and seasonal making it impossible to tour New Zealand by rail. So sad that a country that extols its virtues as a green Mecca, forces tourist to hire cars and camper-vans. Coach holidays are available but they tend to just follow the tourist trail. I'm pleased you enjoyed the ride. Take care. Tim.
