New Zealand Rail Pics
18th September 2007 to 4th October 2007

Holiday in New Zealand - This was NOT intended to be a rail visit !! I had no idea that there was a railway in my base town of Napier - turns out it's quite a busy intermodql port.
The pictures are of the 3 ft 6 in gauge national NZ system.
