The bad vibrations continue on the Wairarapa region's rail line, where brand new tracks signed off by KiwiRail were found to be too narrow for the carriages that use them.
Train speeds have been reduced considerably over a 16-kilometre section of the track laid just two months ago but trains still vibrate disconcertingly through parts of it.
And a fix will be slow in coming after Greater Wellington Regional Council said work to grind the tracks back can't be done until a fire ban in the region is lifted.
Carterton mayor Ron Mark describes the situation as a "circus". Mark spoke to Corin Dann.
