Porirua's miniature train is back on track after a two-year restoration.
The popular attraction at Aotea Lagoon stopped running in 2015, mainly because of rust and decay on the tracks.
But the Porirua City Council and Lions Club of Aotea Railway have knuckled down, repairing and upgrading the track to bring it back to life.
Improvements include a new bridge over the duck pond, improved drainage, new safety fences, 90m of replaced track, and new doors featuring a mural on the tunnel.
