KiwiRail attired DX 5460 and DC 4513 bring a short off-season TranzAlpine train up the Kaimata bank, less than an hour from its westbound destination of Greymouth.
Trains on 3' 6" (1.067m) track from Whangarei to Bluff with virtually heritage rebuilt EMD and GE locomotives still the mainstay power. The network was privatized in 1990's and operated by Toll until 2008 when state owned KiwiRail was established.
