Palmerston North–Gisborne Line : ウィキペディア英語版
Palmerston North–Gisborne Line

The Palmerston North–Gisborne Line (PNGL) is a secondary main line railway in the North Island of New Zealand. It branches from the North Island Main Trunk Railway in Palmerston North and runs east through the Manawatu Gorge to Woodville, where it meets the Wairarapa Line, and then proceeds to Hastings and Napier in Hawke's Bay before following the coast north to Gisborne. Construction began in 1872, but the entire line was not completed until 1942.
In conjunction with the Moutohora Branch that ran north from Gisborne between 1900 and 1959, the line was originally intended to connect to the East Coast Main Trunk Railway, but the difficult inland section between the Taneatua Branch in the Bay of Plenty and the Moutohora Branch was never completed.
The line has been freight only since October 2001, when the Bay Express passenger train was cancelled. The northern portion of the line from Napier to Gisborne was reviewed as part of KiwiRail's turnaround plan, and was effectively mothballed north of Wairoa in early 2012 due to storm damage. In October 2012 KiwiRail announced the line from Napier to Gisborne would be mothballed from October 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KiwiRail to mothball Napier-Gisborne Line )
== Construction ==

The PNGL was constructed in two distinct phases. The southern portion between Napier and Palmerston North was built between 1872 and 1891, while the northern portion from Napier to Gisborne followed at a much later date, 1912 to 1942.
