Two of New Zealand’s most famous scenic train journeys are coming out of a Covid-19-induced hibernation.
KiwiRail has announced that the Northern Explorer and Coastal Pacific will be back on track later in the year.
Both services were dropped in December last year as passenger numbers dwindled.
The Auckland to Wellington Northern Explorer will resume from September 25, while the Picton to Christchurch Coastal Pacific returns on September 29.
