"West Coasters have never been so happy to hear the rumble of the TranzAlpine train pulling into the station.

The popular train service between Christchurch and Greymouth resumed service on Saturday after it was stopped in its tracks on March 22 due to Covid-19.

Grey District mayor Tania Gibson, donned in mayoral chains, welcomed 300 passengers onto a festive train platform in Greymouth."
