i used to live out in kumeu, rode the train to auckland every day to go to school. trains were a pigsty even to a 12 year old me. my dad knew a train driver and one day i got to sit in the front. the waitakere tunnel was a crumbling mess and the tracks when viewed from the drivers position were as straight as a drag queen.
never been on a train since i left school but of course now its "clean and green".
