    -- About this video --
    Today we are rushing to the Dunedin Railway Station because today we are taking the train on the Taieri Gorge Railway with Dunedin Railways!
    The day starts at Dunedin’s most-photographed building, the Dunedin Railway Station, and we jump on board the vintage Taieri Gorge Train in Dunedin. It’s one of three train journeys in Dunedin.
    Like the name suggest, the Taieri Gorge Railway takes us along the Taieri River with lots of tunnels and viaducts along the way. Not to mention the views of this scenic train journey in New Zealand. If you’re wanting to take the train in New Zealand then the Dunedin Railways is worth considering.
    Taking the train in Dunedin on the Taieri Gorge Railway brings up all the way through rural landscape to Pukerangi which is our turnaround point where we get to enjoy the train journey all over again. The activity is full day activity in Dunedin and also a great thing to do on a rainy day in Dunedin.
    So what you think of the Taieri Gorge Railway? Would you add it to your Dunedin travel itinerary? LUK in the comments.

    It is good to see it again. I grew up in Dunedin and took the train (BEFORE the tourist trains!) or the railcar inland to go tramping. I've even walking through one of the tunnels, then across the bridge!

      @@NZPocketGuide not sure if this is relevant now but I work for Glenbrook Vintage Railway (you may know about it) but to close and open you need to hold both levers down and if it's jammed you move it up or down with a bit of force and it should come lose for you to pull it down 😉😃 and some times you can't put it all the way down due to a metal bar that sits in the window frame to keep it up😀
