Onehunga Wharf railway station on the Onehunga Branch section of the Onehunga Line was the terminal station for the line to Auckland from 28 November 1878[1] to 1927.[2] A petition in 1870 objected to the extension from Onehunga, on the grounds that it would take business away from the town.[3]
From 1886 until the completion of the North Island Main Trunk line in 1909, travelling to and from Auckland and the lower North Island involved a train journey north to New Plymouth then by coastal ship from New Plymouth to Onehunga.[vague]
The opening and closing dates given by Scoble are: opened June 1874, to passengers April 1892 and closed to goods on 28 December 2006 and on 31 March 1971 to passengers,[4] although the Heritage Trust[2] and another source say that the station closed in 1927.[5] From 10 December 1927 its accounts were merged with Onehunga and it was treated as a flag station for accounting.[6]
By 1899 there was a 4th class station building, urinals, 40 ft (12 m) x 30 ft (9.1 m) and 31 ft (9.4 m) x 16 ft (4.9 m) goods sheds, loading bank, weighbridge, wagon turntable, cattle and sheep yards. From 1976 locomotives were kept at least 20 m (66 ft) from the concrete base of the wharf.[6]
