Real Journeys (TSS Earnslaw)

/in /by

The TSS Earnslaw is an integral part of Queenstown’s pioneering history and to this day a Queenstown icon.

She was commissioned by New Zealand Railways to service the communities around Lake Wakatipu. Launched in the same year as the Titanic, the TSS Earnslaw’s maiden voyage was on 18 October 1912.

The leisurely 90 minute cruise across Lake Wakatipu showcases some of Queenstown’s spectacular alpine scenery while offering plenty of time to explore a piece of Queenstown’s living history – the 106 year old TSS Earnslaw.

Zenith Engineering enjoyed working with the team at Real Journeys to be a part of powering such an iconic vessel.

Specifications for each unit supplied:

  • 60KVA – 3 Phase.
  • Powered by 4BG1TRV – 4 cylinder – 4.3L Isuzu turbo engine.
  • Mecc-Alte ECP32 2M/4 alternator rated to 63KVA – 3 phase.
  • Manufactured and fully marinised by Zenith Engineering.
  • Fitted in powder coated zinc anneal sound attenuated cabinets specially designed and developed by Zenith Engineering.

When it comes to chartering peace of mind is key – which is achieved with a Zenith Engineering product powered by Isuzu.
