Mid Winter Christmas Dinner.

Departing Feilding in our 1930s carriages hauled by a KiwiRail diesel locomotive, we travel to Palmerston North to pick up more passengers. Then we meander through the Manawatu Gorge, with all its spectacular scenery, to Woodville.

Leaving Woodville we make a right hand turn that takes us to Pahiatua and past the new Fonterra Dairy factory and on to the Pahiatua railway station. We travel on to Eketahuna and into northern Wairarapa, running through Mauriceville and entering the Wairarapa wine country.

Copthorne Hotel
Arriving at the From Masterton railway station you will be bused to the fabulous Copthorne Hotel where the dining room awaits, festooned with Christmas decorations, Christmas trees and Christmas music. You will almost be looking for Santa himself!
