Train to Glenbrook on the 2% grade departing Victoria Avenue.



Hillside built Ja class sisters 1250 (GVR) and 1240 (Mainline Steam) make an impressive departure from Victoria Ave. After running in at Glenbrook, recently restored 1240 was based in Christchurch ready for NZ Railways/KiwiRail 150th anniversary.
