Here the TranzAlpine crosses the Broken River, a tributary of the Waimakariri River. The rail line has several bridges similar to this along its route.

We also get to see the train itself, with the following consist:

• 2x DC class locomotives
• 7x AK class carriages in AKL, AK, AK, AKC, AK, AK, AKV configuration (not all in view).
