Poll: Do you think Auckland should chip in for the train service?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A proposed “gamechanger” Sunday service for Te Huia would be part-funded by Auckland if Waikato Regional Council had its way.

There’s a little over a year left in the trial of the inter-regional rail service, meaning start-up funding from NZ Transport Agency is due to dry up mid-2026.

Has Firewire (IEEE 1394) connectivity and a PC Sync socket.
Takes compact flash and smart media cards.
Comes in the box, with owners manual and notes made . ( No lens cover)
Uses 4 AA batteries and does not need the extra CR123s .

This camera is sold as is where is. Because I do not have the cable or card reader I am unable to test it now but was wonderful when it previously. But it turns on and functions normally. It is well used and produced excellent results when in use. (Small chip on battery compartment .)

Residents who packed out the lounge and waited patiently for a chance to meet the PM said they were ‘very impressed’ at Luxon’s determination to get around everyone who had turned out to see him – even as his team started to worry he would be late for his next engagement!
