Christchurch's peace train is on track to make its Spring debut, thanks to dozens of residents answering a call by the City Council for volunteers.

Yusuf Islam previously known as Cat Stevens gifted a miniature train to Christchurch after the mosque attacks in 2019 on the condition it will be free for the city's residents.

Volunteer and chief train driver, Andrew Wilson talks to Jesse.
