Stranded, stressed, and struggling ... Wellington travellers were severely disrupted today after the country's only rail inspection device failed. T
hat means the standard safety checks on the region's rail network have not been done forcing speed restrictions had to be imposed... and just half the usual number of peak-hour trains can run.
The failed device has now been fixed, but it will take days to get the system back to full speed.
Porirua falls in the centre of the first day of disruption... the city's mayor is Anita Baker spoke to Charlotte Cook.
