Re: Mount Hope line



I havent been to Mount Hope for a few years now but I recall that the formation
was still visible in town and could be seen in a few places on the road to
Matakana. Nothing left at the junction that I could see though. There may be
some relics left in the scrub but as the road does not exactly follow the route
of the line they would be on private property.
Regards,
Tote
