Coastal Pacific
New Zealand's Coastal Pacific is a long distance passenger train that runs for 98 kilometers through ruggedly beautiful coastline between Picton and Christchurch in the South Island of New Zealand. Along this journey travelers will get to see the picturesque country with the rocky Pacific Ocean shoreline on one side and the Kaikoura mountain ranges on the other side. Also, wildlife such as dolphins, seals, and penguins may be seen.
While on board, the train includes an open air viewing carriage allowing passengers to get the best view of the scenery. Some of the train's amenities consist of a cafe, large windows in all carriages, overhead racks for baggage, and a wheelchair hoist.
