Car Free Day - train ride to town and back

Hello all train people!

We are gearing up for Car Free Day and the train ride to town!

We have been granted all the funds we applied for and are very grateful to Otago Community Trust, DCC Small Grants fund, Waikouaiti Coast Community Board and Chalmers Community Board for supporting the commuter train for Car Free Day.

Now all we have to do is fill the train on 22 September!  Warrington School are having a day out in town.  Waitati, Purakanui and Port Chalmers Schools are going to Opoho School for a visit; they are another Enviro School.

We have invited the Mayoral candidates to meet the train and give us their views on public transport.  This is our chance to show Dunedin that the North Coast wants a train and that there are lots of people who will use it.

Thank you all for your support and we'll see you on the train!

Timetable as follows:

Leaves from Waitati:

7.40 Waitati
7.45 Michies Crossing
7.50 Osbourne
7.55 Purakanui
8.00 Mihiwaka
8.10 Upper Port Chalmers
8.15 Sawyers Bay
8.25 Maia
8.40 Dunedin

Leaves Dunedin at 5.45 ..... Arrives Waitati 6.30.

If you need any more details ... please ring Danielle on 482 1233
