KEY POINTS:
A picnic special train will take Aucklanders 80km north to next month's opening of the Atiu Creek Farm regional park.
The 843ha farm on the shores of the Kaipara Harbour was given to the nation in October 2005 by Pierre and Jackie Chatelanat and is under the Auckland Regional Council parks network.
The council says the train trip on Saturday, April 5, will take 3 1/2 hours to Wellsford Station.
The return fare of $75 per adult and $45 per child includes a shuttle bus trip between the station and the park 20km away on the Tapora Peninsula.
