Midland_Line,_New_Zealand,_in_snow.jpg

Description

For three days last week we were completely isolated here in Greymouth. All the passes in and out were closed, the midland line was buried in snow and the airports were closed.

Here’s one of my favourite shots of the snowfall, one of the midland line engines being used as a snow plough.

Credit to my friend Colleen and driver Mike Kilsby of Otira for the shot.
