Probably good to video the rare train. This line must be under threat of closure.

I wouldn't actually agree there... I think the line is growing, especially with the Edendale dairy plant pumping out more

Just finished a South Island road trip - pity you cant do much of it by train anymore :( Awesome video too btw

Pleased to hear it. Back in my civil servant days, there was much talk of line closures through traffic loadings and there were some who though the line south of Dunedin was vulnerable.

I remember when the Southerner used to stop there...bit of a shame
