Thomas Nash: Wellington Trains are in a 'bad situation' - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Admission Wellington's trains are in a 'bad situation.'

The region's public transit users are set to face around 10 to 15 years of buses replacing trains on days when maintenance is needed - across some weekends and public holidays.

The region's Transport Committee Chair Thomas Nash told Mike Hosking that the situation's been put off, until now.

He says they've skated by and didn't want to pay rates or invest, and now there's a bigger job in front of them.
