Trentham Railway Station is an urban railway station in Trentham, a suburb of the city of Upper Hutt in the Wellington region of New Zealand's North Island. It is on the Hutt Valley Line section of the Wairarapa Line and has two side platforms. The station is served by Tranz Metro's electric multiple unit trains, usually of the EM class.
The double-tracking of the Wairarapa Line ends at Trentham Railway Station. It then becomes single track as the line continues north. The 2011 – 2012 Regional Rail Plan (RRP) proposeso duplicating the track between Trentham and Upper Hutt in 2012.[2]
The platform on the Racecourse Road side is only used for special occasions that occur at the Trentham Racecourse. Tranz Metro tickets can be purchased from the Racecourse Dairy, opposite the railway station.
The station was opened in 1907 [3]
