We were lucky enough recently to see the "TranzAlpine" wending it's way past us as we were driving home. This passenger train runs from Greymouth to Christchurch and goes through some of the most amazing scenery in the South Island.
Linking up with Weekend Reflections and The Weekend Roundup.

Must be an interesting journey #WeekendReflection
...there is beautiful scenery along the way. It would be a lovely trip!
I'd appreciate a trip on that.
t is our "Bucket List". I suppose now would be a good time to do it but we just don't feel like travelling at all.
LOL. I cannot see at railway like a normal person anymore, working first for Siemens Mobility and now Alstom. The other day I had to translate a very technical document to German and weeee...
I read about asbestos and where to find what in case of fire etc. Will I ever hop in a train again?
It would be incredible to be able to go on that trip one day as I have heard so much about it.
We took that train in 2015. Unfortunately it was very delayed and we didn't get into Christchurch until late in the evening.
There was a program about that train trip on TV here in Greece. The next week one of my fav vendors at the laiki asked me if I was from Springfield. Remarkably close. Not many Greeks would know Springfield unless they'd seen that program.
There have been several programmes on Tv recently about the Trans Alpine. What a marvellous trip it would be
Nice shot of the train. I like traveling by train. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a good book. The only problem is, I can drive to my daughter's in 11 hours, but it takes most of 2 days to ride the train. I like your camper. The perfect way to travel.

What an amazing journey that train would take you on in the South island. Have a great week.
