Canadian Youtuber Transforms Golf Cart Into Train and Explores Abandoned Railways of New Zealand

A Canadian decided to transform his golf cart into a train and travel along abandoned railways in New Zealand. The result was a unique journey, full of surprises, humor, and even a Mini Cooper to restore.

Golf carts are known for their rubber wheels and restricted use on golf courses. However, Canadian Youtuber DownieLive had a different idea. He replaced the traditional wheels of the cart with metal plates, adapting it to travel on the train tracks of New Zealand.

The Journey Along The Abandoned Railways

The journey was documented on his YouTube channel and showed that, besides being an unusual trip, the experience was full of discoveries.

The trip was filled with stunning landscapes. Along the way, DownieLive and his travel companion passed over 90 bridges and 20 tunnels, enjoying the tranquility of New Zealand’s countryside.

Amid this scenery, there were moments of relaxation, such as stops for morning tea and homemade snacks. Watch the video below. Turn on the subtitles in Portuguese.

During the trip, the two had an encounter with a sheep that was standing on the tracks, something quite typical of the local wildlife. “It feels like a ride in an amusement park“, commented DownieLive.

The tracks they traveled were originally used for coal transport, but today they are practically abandoned, with the exception of some occasional tourist rides.

The Abandoned Mini Cooper

The tranquility of the route contrasted with the hustle of large cities, providing a unique experience in the midst of nature.

However, the trip was not just about tranquility and scenery. At one point, the duo encountered an abandoned Mini Cooper on the tracks, much of it covered by vegetation.

They even joked about the idea of restoring it and turning it into a “train”, making a connection with the modified golf cart itself.

The trip ended peacefully, with beautiful photos of the mountains of New Zealand. The golf cart proved to be an ideal vehicle for this unique adventure, offering a perfect combination of practicality and fun.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

China opens the world’s first school where more than 100 humanoid robots from different brands will study together, each movement will be repeated up to 600 times a day and the data will feed a collective brain that will teach all the robots of the future.

Cambodia has started digging a nearly 180-kilometer canal to connect the Mekong River directly to the sea and reduce its dependence on the ports of neighboring Vietnam.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.

Cyclone gains strength and causes drastic climate change: new polar air mass drops temperatures, increases frost risk, and brings heavy rain to various regions of Brazil in the coming days.

SpaceX sets share price at $135 and targets a historic $75 billion IPO to debut on Nasdaq with a trillion-dollar market value

The domino effect of US sanctions reaches cards in Cuba, bringing down Visa and Mastercard and exposing a new obstacle for the island’s economy.

The solid-state battery, promised for years as the future of electric cars, is finally starting to move from the laboratory to mass production.

In North Korea, residents take bottles, plastic, fabric, paper, and metal to recycling shops and exchange waste for products as sanctions, closed borders, and a more than 80% drop in trade with China pressure the country to replace imports.
