The final train line for Auckland with the Southern Line running from Britomart to Papakura. Until 2022, train services used to run to Pukekohe, but the line beyond Papakura has since been closed for over two years to facilitate electrification. A few new stations will also be built in the large 16km gap, opening in 2025 and 2026. The Southern Line shares tracks with the Western Line from Britomart to Newmarket, then with the Onehunga Line from Newmarket to Penrose. There is a short section of unique track after Penrose before it joins with the Eastern Line, sharing track with it until Puhinui. The final section to Papakura is only served by the Southern Line. In this video we start at Parnell Station where I am annoyed due to smartcard glitches that made me pay over the daily fare cap, before travelling all the way to Papakura with a stop at Puhinui Station. Due to some lateness, the train then ran express back from Papakura to Puhinui Station, so I recorded this too.

I enjoyed watching your perspectives on our poor rail network.

You did well to navigate the Auckland train services after the initial hype they quickly became overcrowded and incident prone. Nothing like the speed of Perth services.

I find it strange that Auckland started building their City Rail Link after Brisbane started building Cross River Rail, yet it will open earlier. 2025 for Auckland vs 2026 for Brisbane. That said though, Cross River Rail is about 3 times the size of Auckland's City Rail link if you count not just the tunnel section but also the existing rail lines and all the suburban stations that are undergoing major necessary rebuilding and realignment's and we are also building 2 new major rail depots (one of which was completed last year and is now already operational).

Brisbane CRR is also incorperating more new elements which require significantly more work and testing: -Automatic train operation (GoA2) through the new section, with drivers and guards only operating doors -Platform screen doors at all new underground stations (Auckland plans for this in future but not opening in 2025) -Brisbane is rebuilding a stack of stations and expanding+rearranging stabling yards as part of the project Brisbane is also projected to have significantly more riders using the CRR tunnel than Auckland (it's just a bigger city with a bigger, more important rail network) so more things have to go work together for a successful project. Brisbane also will have 4 lines running through the CRR whereas Auckland is only a 3-line system with flat junctions.
