The Southerner passenger train will be resurrected if The Opportunities Party (TOP) wins a seat at the general election, its leader says.

TOP’s transport policy, released on Wednesday, pledges support for a five year trial of The Southerner, the passenger rail service between Christchurch and Invercargill which ended in 2002.

TOP leader and Ilam candidate Raf Manji said the trial would operate between Christchurch and Dunedin, stopping in towns like Timaru and Ashburton along the way.

Depending on demand, it could operate five to seven days a week and do two or three return journeys a day. TOP has estimated the cost at $100 million, based on the costings of the Hamilton to Auckland train service, Te Huia.

As my regular clients are all aware, I'm making the move to Christchurch in October.

You'll all be missed, I absolutely loved all the chats, yarns, tea and biscuits and I do hope to find someone to take care of you when I'm gone.

I can't wait to start taking care of the Christchurch community, as such I'll likely start posting a little more regularly to get myself out there so feel free to get in touch If I can be of any assistance whatsoever.

I could sit here all day and fluff this up but there's still work to be done so I best get out there!

Cheers and take care everyone,

Todd.
