Ride the spectacular Midland Line, through the Southern Alps to Arthur's Pass. to the Glenbrook Vintage Railway and Featherston Fell Museum. More than 50 locomotives can be identified throughout this look at steam in New Zealand. Shot on 16mm film and one inch broadcast tape, Perntrex can offer this show on HD Blu-ray as well as standard DVD. New Zealand National Film Unit. Distributed by Pentrex. New to Disc. |
