a Ww 4-6-4T with a mixed train approaches Pitcaithly's station, Hutt Valley, Wellington, circa 1920


Pitcaithly’s was one of several stations opened in 1908 on the Hutt Valley line on the western side of the river. It was closed as a station in 1938 although the line itself past Melling lasted until 1954 when the double track line on the eastern side of the river was completed.  See the book Wellington Transport Memories for more.
