Amazing New Zealand railway!
Hi there,

I recently visited the Driving Creek Railway in Coromandel, New Zealand to see how one very clever man called Barry Brickell and a group of his friends worked together over 32 years to create one amazing railway!

It was originally made to transport clay down a mountain to potters, but today it's used to show visitors some of the areas most beautiful views and native flora.

Enjoy the video here
