Huntly section update – December 2018
The Huntly section will form part of the Waikato Expressway, connecting Auckland with the Waikato and Bay of Plenty.
The Huntly section involves 15km of four lane expressway, 4million m3 of earthworks, an 80m cut through the Taupiri Range, over 100ha of forest, bush and wetland enhancement and permanent protection of a sacred lagoon and two pa.
This construction project will connect the already completed Ohinewai section of the expressway to the Ngaruawahia section, which opened in late 2013; and reduce traffic congestion and improve safety within the Huntly and Taupiri townships by significantly reducing through traffic.

Hamilton City Tour Part 1- Auckland to Hamilton New Zealand
Hi all,
#JourneywithAmit channel presents you Part 1 of #Hamiltoncity tour in #NewZealand.
#Hamilton city is roughly 2 hours drive from #Auckland city in #NewZealand. It is an inland city, famous for its Waikato University, Hamilton cricket ground, Hamilton Gardens, Hamilton Lake etc. You can read more about Hamilton from various links that I have pasted below.
In this video I have tried to capture some views of #Highway from Auckland city to Hamilton, stopping at Huntly city for a short break. At the entrance of the Hamilton city we paid a small visit to #Krishna temple, followed by a quick lunch at one of the Indian restaurants in Hamilton city, New Zealand.

The Hamilton section commences at the Lake Road junction with the Ngāruawāhia section in the north. It then runs south, to the east of Hamilton, connecting to the existing Tamahere interchange deviation just south of Hillcrest.
The Hamilton section will connect the Ngāruawāhia section of the expressway; reduce traffic congestion and improve safety on Hamilton’s local road network by significantly reducing through traffic.
The Waikato Expressway is one of New Zealand's Roads of National Significance.

A Ride on the Tawhiti Bush Railway
This was filmed on the 22nd of October, 2016.
As evidenced by the title, this is a recreation of a bush railway. The Tawhiti Museum is near the town of Hawera. It is only around 1 kilometre long, but it is a great insight into life on the bush tramways, many of which ran all over New Zealand, bringing logs from the forest to the sawmill. Places like Ongarue and Mamaku were the place to go if you wanted to see large bush tramway operations.
Sadly, bush tramways in New Zealand are a thing of the past, having succumbed to road competition. I will plead ignorant on that one, because I'm not too familiar with the history of bush tramways.

Visit any model train show and you'll see why HO scale layouts and model trains are the most popular worldwide. Although not called HO scale in the UK, OO gauge (UK's most popular) is very close to the same size as HO model trains (HO scale is 1:87 compared to OO gauge at 1:76). It's popular because the scale is just such a practical size!
