Operation
Trains are run thrice daily from Waihi to Waikino and return. The trip takes 30 minutes each way, with a 15 minute stopover at Waikino. Unlike many heritage railways and regular rail services, the Goldfields Railway allows pets to ride on the train, though only on the open carriage that is included in each journey's consist. The railway also offers charter services by arrangement.
