Feb 11, 2026 A Short Train Ride
We took a scenic train ride today, the Seasider Express. 
We waited in the opulent lobby of the Dunedin Railway Station with the other passengers for our Dunedin Railways Tour.
Unfortunately is was overcast, with clouds low on the hillsides surrounding us as we rode up the west side of Otago Harbour and into the hills over to Blueskin Bay.
We had a few views from up in the hills down onto the waters of Blueskin Bay, Purakaunui Inlet and Otago Harbour.
On our return to Dunedin we made a brief stop at Port Chalmers for Cruise ship passengers to disembark and walk down through town back to their ship, while the rest of us rode on into Dunedin. The Church is known for it’s clock in the steeple and is mentioned in THIS BLOG of a casual sightseeing walk through Port Chalmers on a day that looked a bit sunnier than today!
