Having traversed the Manawatu Gorge
Having traversed the Manawatu Gorge to Palmerston North on the return leg with Steam Incorporated's special excursion train “Hawkes Bay Wine and Food by Rail” the crew kindly allowed me to leave my camera mounted on their locomotive for the run back to Paekākāriki. For the remainder of the journey we travel along part the NIMT (North Island Main Trunk) connecting New Zealand's capital city (Wellington) with it's largest city (Auckland). The line traverses fertile farmland bounded on the inland side by the Manawatu and Tararua ranges with the Cook Strait/Tasman sea on the other side. As we are travelling towards the end of the day we are treated to a magnificent New Zealand sunset, finally we arrive into Paekākāriki bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun where the train is stabled at Steam Incorporated's depot. Please join me and the crew for a relaxing journey into the setting sun.
The leading engine is DB class locomotive No.1254 with 1955 vintage General Motors diesel locomotive No.DA1410 assisting.
