Next time you’re in NZ, the Coromandel peninsula in general is a great place to visit. Truly one of the most picturesque places I’ve ever been.

@Barry – Lol – great name! And yes, building a railway is quite the addition to a resume. There’s chasing passion for you!

After 32 years, how many people can say that they’ve done something like singlehandedly building an entire railway?

If you didn’t know how it was built and assumed it was “mass-produced”, you’d say the train ride itself was okay. But it’s the story of how it all came to be that really resonates with visitors.

Neglecting the odds, doubt and negativity from his surroundings and he built one of the “must-see” attractions from his passion. I love it!
