Remarks & Notes

The last few miles of the 680Km/420 mile Northern Explorer journey from Wellington are along Auckland's waterfront. Auckland is known as the city of sails, reputed to have more yachts per person than any other city in the world. This line is shared between Eastern Line trains and KiwiRail trains serving nearby port.
