Paerata railway station
Paerata railway station was a station on the North Island Main Trunk in New Zealand, serving the Paerata settlement.
The station was opened on 20 May 1875. It was closed to passengers on 24 July 1972, and to all traffic on 1 October 1982. A crossing loop was retained.
Paerata was a flag station, south of Auckland. It was north of Wellington, north of Pukekohe, south of Runciman and above sea level.
New train stations for Drury West and Paerata are included in a July 2017 proposal for Auckland infrastructure spending of $600 million to support new housing announced by the government. They will be built and owned by a new Crown Infrastructure Partners body, as the Auckland Council has reached its borrowing limit.
