Manor Park Railway Station is an island platform urban railway station in Manor Park, a suburb of the city of Lower Hutt in the Wellington region of New Zealand's North Island. It is on the Hutt Valley Line section of the Wairarapa Line. This station is served by Tranz Metro's electric multiple unit trains, typically of the EM/ET class.
In 1954 the Hutt Valley Branch became the main line, and the Melling-Haywards section was closed. A new station was erected at Haywards (now called Manor Park) where the new line from Pomare joined the existing line north. The old Haywards Railway Station station had been opened (with Belmont Railway Station) on 15 December 1875.[2].
