Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 2 hours ago Journalists Posted 2 hours ago Time is running out for racegoers to get onboard The Whale Train for Kaikoura’s two day meeting next month. Held over Marlborough Anniversary weekend the Sunday meeting on November 2 will feature the opening rounds of the 2025 World Driving Championship while Monday’s card will be highlighted by the 100th running of the Kaikoura Cup. The annual meeting is always a crowd favourite with thousands flocking to the scenic South Bay race course. This year Pounamu Tourism is offering two return train trips from Christchurch on its Whale Train – a retro, red and white, 1950s classic DA locomotive. Both leave and return on the same day. The Sunday trip leaves Christchurch at 8.30am and returns at 6.15pm, with a one and a half hour window at the races while Monday’s trip departs at 8.30am and returns at 10.15pm, giving travellers the opportunity to catch all the day’s action on course. The cost for a family of four is $399, with adults at $169 and children at $69.
