Train cancellations, delays, as track fault closes Britomart station
Heads up central Aucklanders!
A track fault has closed Auckland’s Britomart train station, disrupting travel.
Auckland Transport said the fault occurred early on Thursday morning, and it alerted public transport users at 5.45am to the disruptions.
Delays and cancellations are expected as the station is “temporarily closed” due to the issue.
All services that head to Britomart would be stopping at Newmarket.
Replacement services are operating between the two stations.
As of 9am, the station remained closed.
“The Onehunga line is cancelled between Britomart and Penrose,” AT said.
“Rail replacement buses are running between Newmarket and Britomart.”

Why make finding reserving books harder in Auckland libraries?
Just using the last digit of a customers library card should be sufficient?
So all books for a customer go in the same place.
