Taupiri was a station on the North Island Main Trunk line with a goods shed[2] and an island platform,[3] serving the small settlement of Taupiri in the Waikato District of New Zealand.

A stationmaster's house and telegraph office were added in 1882[4] and a goods shed at about the same time.[5] There were protests when the stationmaster was withdrawn in 1895[6] and the station was reduced to a flag station,[7] though still staffed.[8] In 1901 this resulted in a case of calves being left at the station.[9]

Traffic grew as shown in the graph and table below.

Mangawara Bridges 272 and 273

[edit]

Wooden trestle bridge 57 was built in 1877 to cross the Mangawara Stream, just north of Taupiri. When the line was doubled in 1938,[69] bridges 272 and 273 were built alongside.[70] 273 (east) was replaced from 2015[71] and 272 (west) upgraded.[72] The replacement used 390 tonnes of steel in two 24m girders connected to 5.5m cross beams.[73] The bridge was the last of 8 bridge[74] upgrades to increase line capacity.[75]
