KiwiRail PR display, November 2013


One of the boards containing statistics seen in the Wellington Station on the weekend that the 150th anniversary travelling exhibition trains were there.  The 4,000 km of track (specifically 4,128 km) figure, however, includes lines that have been 'mothballed' or severely under-utilized under Steven Joyce:

All lines that form part of the North Auckland Line in Northland;
The Stratford–Okahukura Line in Taranaki;
The northern portion of the Wairarapa Line;
The Gisborne – Napier section of the Palmerston North - Gisborne Line (mothballed due to storm damage north of Wairoa early 2012, mothballed Napier – Gisborne from October 2012
