These videos highlight the skill everyone involved with railways in NZ has to have. Whilst the scenery is spectacular, it highlights the brilliance of the early engineers who built the line, and the terrain and narrow clearances in places highlights the importance of the track being maintained to a very high standard, as well as the vigilance and train handling skills required by the crews. Kudos to all at KiwiRail who do their utmost day in day out, in sometimes extraordinary circumstances, and help maintain NZ's extraordinarily good safety record.

That was awesome guys. Great in 4K video. Thanks

Great footage, loved every minute of it.

Another great, awesome video, Geoff. thanks! Cheers from Wagga, NSW.

Perserverance Road, on the right at 21:43, signpost just visible. Took a while to find, but pretty certain from matching street view to the house between the rail and the main road and the trees on the other side. Thanks Geoff!

It's amazing how much old track is just left there to rust away.
