Mainline Steam Excursions

Mainline Steam is devoted to the restoration and operation of historic mainline steam locomotives. Regular day excursions and multi-day tours are operated, over rail lines throughout New Zealand.

Relive the days of steam engines, while experiencing the magnificent New Zealand countryside. Excursions are operated from the Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch branches.

As well as excursions the locomotives are available for charter by interested organisations and Mainline Steam can provide a completely staffed train, if required. These make for fantastic company outings.
