Glenhope Station
The Glenhope Station, on the Nelson Section, operated from 1912 to 1955, and was the terminus for most of that time (Kawatiri and/or Gowanbridge operated 1926 to 1932 only). The station building, but nothing else survives (just off SH6 -- not signposted, on a 100 km/h highway, so need to know where you're looking for it!). – Unknown author Unknown author, Public Domain – Wikimedia Commons
