Wellington suburban electric multiple unit arrives at Wellington station, 1981

This is a screen shot from the opening credits of the TV comedy show Gliding On about life in the NZ public service based in Wellington, which screened 1981-1985.  It showed the train arriving and passengers pouring out, most of them office workers. That's still the case today, but with Matangi units instead of the old English Electrics.
