KiwiRail has cleared the slips on the Christchurch-West Coast line and will resume services today, including the TranzAlpine train.
‘‘Our staff and contractors have worked hard and getting the line open again so quickly after last week’s devastating weather bomb is a real credit to them,’’ KiwiRail South Island network services manager Jeanine Benson said yesterday.
The TranzAlpine has been running day return trips from Christchurch to Arthur’s Pass while the line was shut by the large slip at Deception Point.
