Core Team
We all love trains, and we all love New Zealand. Rather than campaigning in the streets, we decided to put our heads together and come up with an idea for how we could make rail work for everyone in Aotearoa. Our efforts focused on making it work in the Golden Triangle first. Once that work is complete, we believe that the introduction of other lines across the country will become both viable and affordable.
We are also grateful to the research, copy-checking and administrative support we received from Dominic Joseph, Christian Fernando, Dan Ortiz, Shirley Porter, Maria Smith, Harriet Preddey, Chris Ramage, Mandy Hale, and Kira Soeberg. We hope they can rejoin the team when they have more time again.
