Remarks & Notes 
Northern Explorer passes through Papatoetoe bound for Wellington which will be reached in about 10 hours. The train was built by Hillside Enginering in Dunedin and won a design award. In the distance is One Tree Hill, one of many volcanoes dotting Auckland. It was immortalized in song by band U2 before the distinctive tree fell victim to Maori activism.

Trains on 3' 6" (1.067m) track from Whangarei to Bluff with virtually heritage rebuilt EMD and GE locomotives still the mainstay power. The network was privatized in 1990's and operated by Toll until 2008 when state owned KiwiRail was established.
