An excellent video, I loved it. Rolling through the Valley and the beautiful landscape, It reminded me of the Lake district in England. That valley would have probably been created by a Glacier thousands of years ago. As I said, an excellent video and I will look out for more. Greetings from UK
There's something deeply satisfying about NZ countryside with that glacial meltwater flowing under the bridges. I'm very envious! Best wishes from England.
this is amazing!!!!!! im sure having to use the restroom in a 5 gal. bucket is totally worth it. (or hanging off the side w safetyline attached of course..... )
Hi again ! Is there any chance of another train cab ride video ? I have asked this a few weeks, and and a couple of days ago, but have not received a reply. Please let me know if another video is possible (like this one) Thanks

More to come!
Until I came across this video, I did not know - or think - that New Zealand had any railways! The scenery is magnificent.
Lol NZ has more scenery than you can shake a stick at.
New Zealand was founded by the British, who invented the railways.
Maravilloso!!!!!!!!
There’s something deeply satisfying hearing those diesels rumbling away.
Lovely scenery !! Please do more ? Can you tell me if this is possible ?
Many more videos to come

Yes, soon
I never realised how much noise the traction motors make on the DX's
47：00 so close to the front train
Banker engines waiting to be coupled on the front for the 1 in 33 grade through the tunnel ahead.
@@nzrailmaps thank you
hy frist koment me ne ki
Seems like you have to goto the South Island for proper train horns these days ....
😀
Unfortunately they'll likely be phased out when new locomotives for the South Island - DM class - arrive
12:22 Those are some pretty tight corners at that speed 😬
It's signedposted for 55 km/h there, which could be a 200 metre radius curve about?
34 km total trip in 43 minutes, so they were not really going fast. It's uphill all the way.
