On board

Craving your morning caffeine fix? Grab your morning coffee onboard Te Huia!

Our onboard barista is available throughout the journey, making a selection of hot drinks. Don't forget your keep cup!

The cafe will also be serving a selection of catering quality hot and cold food, with cold beverages also for sale.

A quality WiFi solution has been installed in each carriage ensuring you can make full use of your time while travelling. And the best part is it's free!

Use the train like a mobile office - send and receive your emails, download small to medium file sizes to read and edit, browse the web, and communicate with your colleagues and customers via Skype or WhatsApp.

Each passenger will be capped to 250MB per boarding to ensure the quality and speed of the connection is not compromised for other passengers.

There is space onboard to store six bikes and/or prams. 

This Bike & Pram zone is located in the front carriage and is identifiable by a sticker next to the door.

You will need to use the straps onboard to secure your bike safely during the journey.

In line with other public transport services, Waikato Regional Council allows unaccompanied minors to travel on Te Huia. However, please note that we do not provide an assisted service like Air New Zealand. If we are made aware of an unaccompanied minor travelling in advance, we are happy to inform the train staff for that particular service or services, but please be aware staff will not take responsibility for them over and above any other passenger.

If you have an unaccompanied minor/s travelling on the train, we recommend they travel with a mobile phone or have a list of contact names/numbers with them in case an adult caregiver needs to be contacted. If you would like to discuss this policy with us or let us know when an unaccompanied minor is travelling, please email us at tehuiatrain@waikatoregion.govt.nz.
