    Nice vid. My word how Picton has changed since I took the money and left in 1990. Nice town. We loved the 6 years we had there. It was hard to imagine how the yard looked back in my time there.

    This was my first ride on New Zealand's South Island and it will not be my last, stuck in the UK with mobility/health problems these cab rides enable me to roam the world's railways and I thank the maker of this one for all the hard work and your time. Long may you roll.

    How wonderful to see this ride, as an NZR cadet 40 years ago I walked the same rails on a day trip from Wellington. Took me 4-1/2 hours but I wasn't in a great hurry - a lot quicker in the guards van on the way back! It's amazing how little it has changed.
