We’d love to see you at this special community open day at the Remutaka Incline Railway Historic Society workshop on Sunday 14 July between 10am to 2pm.There will be free entry, vintage train rides, and a wander through an old school workshop filled with interesting train memorabilia from times gone by. There’ll be colouring in for the kids, and a cosy space to enjoy a free hot chocolate or coffee on what’s bound to be a chilly winter’s day.
The team from KiwiRail will be there to showcase the work they’re doing inside the Remutaka Tunnel, getting it ready for the arrival of more services and faster trains from 2029. You can even get a glimpse inside the tunnel using virtual reality technology.
Come and meet the team and have a chat. You can find out more about the complex work of completely replacing the line inside New Zealand’s second longest tunnel.
