🚂 THE WOODVILLE STEAM EXPRESS
Palmerston North → Woodville & Return
All aboard for a steam-powered adventure through one of the Manawatū’s most spectacular landscapes! A Collab' with the awesome team at Feilding & District's Steam Rail Society!
Join Steam Incorporated and WWI Memorial Steam Locomotive Ab 608 ‘Passchendaele’ for a special heritage train journey from Palmerston North to Woodville and return, travelling through the magnificent Manawatū Gorge – Te Āpiti.
🌿 Experience the Gorge by Rail
With the former road through the Gorge now closed, the railway offers a unique perspective of this dramatic landscape. Sit back and enjoy the journey alongside the Manawatū River, surrounded by the Ruahine and Tararua Ranges.
🚂 Destination: Woodville
We’ll continue through to Woodville, where there’ll be a short stop while our heritage train is prepared for the return journey — giving you another chance to enjoy the spectacular trip through the Gorge.
Whether you’re bringing the family, love a good train ride, or simply fancy doing something a little different, it’s a great day out on the rails.
🔥 Steam power. Spectacular scenery. Classic Kiwi railway travel.
🎟️ Advance booking is essential – secure your seats aboard the Woodville Steam Express!
