Virginia Fallon Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

The regional council has announced it will seek $415 million in funding for new trains to help increase capacity on the Hutt and Kāpiti lines - the busiest in the region.

The regional council has announced it will seek $415 million in funding for new trains to help increase capacity on the Hutt and Kāpiti lines - the busiest in the region.
Trains running longer distance services between Wellington and Masterton and Wellington and Palmerston North need refurbishments or replacements and patronage growth on these services has already exceeded the available capacity for both fleets, the council said.
Fifteen four-car Dual Mode Multiple Units would replace the current fleet and run on electricity from overhead power wires, switching to alternative energy sources north of Waikanae and Upper Hutt.
The earliest date for the first of the new trains being put into service is 2025.
What do you think? Just how crowded are the trains currently?
We'd love to hear from you and please remember to mark your post NFP if you don't want us to use it in print.
