A pretty basic station on the edge of Auckland City Centre used by the Northern Explorer and Te Huia trains. Finally getting a modest upgrade with wheelchair ramps, toilets and a covered waiting area. But a city with a third of Aotearoa’s population deserves better than this for interregional and long-distance trains.
Absolutely Loved the Scenic Train from Auckland to Wellington. The staffnAre friendly lots of variety of food and drinks on board.nnPlenty of leg room,,comfortable sittingnHighly Recommended.
The Te Huia Train stop at this station too. This is the only way to come to Auckland City from Hamilton if you want to travel by train.nnThe other way to come to Auckland is catching bus route 21 from Hamilton Transport Hub at 9:15am during weekdays. The bus will take you to Pukekohe train station where you can catch bus 394 to Papakura for AT train services to Auckland city. The trip costs you 10 dollars by Full Fare Bee Cards with an approximately 2-hour trip via most towns like The Base, Huntley, Meremere, Hampton Downs, Pukeno, Tuakau and Buckland. It’s a scenic route just like Te Huia is. The return trip departs at 14:20 at Pukekohe Station during weekdays. No service during public holidays. So if you are not a morning person who can make it to catching Te Huia, Route 21 is definitely a good option for you.nnOne of the perks Te Huia has is that it will take you directly to Auckland city with only 18 dollars maximum you need to pay. It also has on board cafe, wifi, toilets and disabled seating areas for customers with different needs. It also runs on Saturday, on which 21 doesn’t run from Hamilton to Pukekohe, as it does from Monday to Friday.nnThe Strand station, which is the one this review is for, is a bit far from the city centre and Britomart Station. Also it doesn’t have an on site toilet at the moment, which causes me a bit inconvenience.
Was hard to get to from the city the bus service was hard to find I ran out of time looking for one and no bus stop across the road from the station we ended up catching a taxi.$30 platform was a basic station atmosphere.not sure why they kept this station here.britomart is 20 min walk away..
You can take Northern explorer train from here for WellingtonnnThe route is soo scenic and beautiful
