Turangarere railway station

Turangarere was a flag station on the North Island Main Trunk line, in the Ruapehu District of New Zealand, in the Hautapu River valley. Turangarere is part way up a 1 in 70 gradient from Mataroa to Hīhītahi, so that it is 62 m (203 ft) above Ngaurukehu and 39 m (128 ft) below Hīhītahi. The station was on a horseshoe curve, formed to avoid an even steeper gradient, by adding about 1.5 mi (2.4 km) to the route. Only a single track now remains through the former station site.
