Kapiti Miniature Railway
The Kapiti Miniature Railway is a mixed-gauge (5 inch and 7 1/4 inch) club track, situated in the Marine Gardens at Raumati Beach, on the Kapiti Coast, about 50 kilometers north of Wellington.
The Railway hosts a collection of live steam, internal combustion and battery electric locomotives. The track is a double loop, and includes one station, two tunnels, two spirals and two viaducts, in a run of about 1/2 kilometer. A planned extension will take the railway to a second station within sight of the beach and Kapiti Island.
Trains are run between 1.00 pm and 4.00 pm on most Sundays of the year, weather permitting. Private runs for birthday parties, corporate events etc, can be booked; speak to any of the Private Bookings Officers named on the contacts page of the website.
