Thanks to Kerry van der Jagt for this great article in the Sydney Morning Herald! Kerry began her journey in Auckland when she boarded the Northern Explorer train bound for Wellington, but stopped off in Taumarunui in the heart of the Ruapehu region to spend a few days exploring the volcanic landscape by train, foot and of course, rail cart!
