Aniwaniwa Visitor Centre, Te Urewera, John Scott 1970-76. Demolished nine years ago today.

Great to have some of these images included in Hamish Coney’s new book A Potent Way of Talking: Colin McCahon and the Urewera Triptych.

One of my favourite train trips. Beautiful scenery. I remember going through the Bulgarian / Turkish border during a lightning storm. Though I did get put in a carriage with two Australians who earlier, upon realising they were on a wrong train, jumped off and were quite badly injured. Good times
