New to BIND – cannot resolve address name

I’m trying to make an A record/DNS entry to a machine connected to our network.

I can ping the machine by IP and by hostname on the the DNS server, NS1. Though I suspect this is because i added them to /etc/hosts.

I’ve never dealt with BIND and have only used AD or online managed DNS providers so I wasn’t sure where to start.

I’m wanting to add to machines to dns with the names train1.newnetwork.lcl and train2.newnetwork.lcl.

I added the following to /etc/bind/db.newnetwork.lcl

ns1:~# cat /etc/bind/db.newnetwork.lcl
; Zone files for newnetwork.lcl

$TTL    3600
@   IN  SOA ns1.newnetwork.lcl. it.mydomain.org. (
        2020051501; Serial
        3600    ; Refresh 5 days
        1800    ; Retry   1 hr.
        864000 ; Expire  10 days
        172800 ) ; Minimum/default 48 hours

    IN  NS  ns1.newnetwork.lcl.
    IN  NS  ns2.newnetwork.lcl.


; Anything not explicitly mentioned below

ns1         IN  A   192.103.195.1
train1      IN  A   10.200.6.228
train2      IN  A   10.200.6.227

Additionally, here’s my /etc/bind/named.conf.local

GNU nano 2.0.2                                            
File: 
/etc/bind/named.conf.local                                                                                                

//
// Do any local configuration here
//

// Consider adding the 1918 zones here, if they are not used in your
// organization
//include "/etc/bind/zones.rfc1918";

zone "newnetwork.lcl" {

        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/db.newnetwork.lcl.conf";

};

Lastly, here’s the output of my check:

ns1:/etc/bind# sudo named-checkzone newnetwork.lcl db.newnetwork.lcl
zone newnetwork.lcl/IN: loaded serial 2020051501
OK

I’m not where to go from here or how to troubleshoot this. Any help is appreciated.
