| 1342042 | 2013-05-20 00:14:00 | Problem is Kaiwharawhara is the worst possible spot to derail, that's where the North Island Main Trunk (Kapiti Line) and Wairarapa Line (Hutt Valley, Melling Lines) merge to enter Wellington station. The derailment would affect everything except Johnsonville services, and even those trains would come from somewhere... | pcuser42 (130) | ||

Depends if it were passengers or staff who heard it, if staff noticed I'd be appalled that the driver wasn't notified (or didn't take action), but passengers might not be sure what to report, or who to. |

| 1342050 | 2013-05-20 00:53:00 | Luckily it was only a train, and even more fortunately it was Wellington. Delays there can only enhance life for the rest of us ;) | R2x1 (4628) | ||
