The Hutt Valley is the large area of fairly flat land in the Hutt River valley in the Wellington region of New Zealand. Like the river that flows through it, it takes its name from Sir William Hutt, a director of the New Zealand Company in early colonial New Zealand.
The river flows roughly along the course of an active geologic fault, which continues to the south to become the main instrument responsible for the uplift of the South Island's Southern Alps. For this reason, the land rises abruptly to the west of the river; to the east two floodplains have developed. The higher of these is between 15 and 22km from the mouth of the river. Beyond this, the river is briefly confined by a steep-sided gorge near Taita, before the land opens up into a long triangular plain close to the outflow into Wellington Harbour.
The lower valley contains the city of Lower Hutt, administered by Hutt City Council, while the adjacent, larger but less populous city of Upper Hutt has its centre on the smaller plain above the Taita Gorge. The valley forms a major dormitory suburban area for Wellington, and is a location for manufacturing and heavy industry, educational and recreational facilities, and the region's motor camps.
The Bachelor NZ has been renewed for a 2nd season and New Zealand is looking for the next Bachelor. Travis is single guy from the Hutt Valley looking for love. Do you think he has what it takes to be the next Bachelor? He's bringing his infamous Hutt style to table but will the ladies like it?

Along the Hutt Valley railway line in 1966/1967
Trains along the Hutt Valley railway line, Woburn to Wellington, in 1966/1967.
Locations include Woburn, the Ava railway bridge, Horokiwi, Ngauranga and Thorndon. The Hutt/Wellington motorway was under construction. Locomotive classes include Ed, Ew, Di, Da, De, also English Electric units and Fiat 88-seat articulated railcars. Peak hour commuter trains commonly had up to 14 or 15 carriages in those days - longer than station platforms so some passengers had to climb up/down steps to/from the ballast. Commuters often stood on the open platforms at the ends of each carriage.
Filmed by Robbie McGavin, who was a young teenager at the time, with a no-sound, 8mm film camera.
Robbie says the camera "was a 'Holiday Metermatic' camera with three different lenses on a rotating turret and abo...

18 Maple Grove, Kingston - Wellington (Aaron Nation)
The views from this fantastic family home are breathtaking even by Wellington standards, stretching from south of the harbour entrance to north of the Hutt Valley. The aspect's just as amazing for sun, there's the bonus of drive-on, and the flat lawn and garden are perfect for sheltered outdoor living - complete with space for a trampoline. Features include:
- Versatility of three double bedrooms and a huge downstairs media room that equally would suit running a business from home, extended family or teenagers, or guest accommodation
- Two bathrooms and a separate toilet, including a laundry/bathroom with the convenience of a laundry chute
- Light-filled living and dining rooms, with big sunny deck from which to soak up the sun and sights plus a heat pump, schist fireplace, and winter's w...

This is a quick look at a theatre project aimed at starting conversations in schools about sexual consent. We're ever so proud of the young actors who committed to this and gave their time and talent so generously.

Busy Day on the Hutt Valley Line (ft. the Q4 shunt and Capital Connection) ~ 10/11/2022 (HD)
The last day in Wellington involved railfanning at Ava station (and a few other places on the Hutt Valley Line), as well as double-headed DFBs on the Q4 shunt and a ride behind DFB 7010 on the Capital Connection. We end with two KiwiRail freight trains in Levin.
I was pleasantly surprised to see two DFBs on that Hutt Workshops run, especially since 7049 has spent the last few months confined to Te Huia service.

Commuters often stood on the open platforms at the ends of each carriage.
Filmed by Robbie McGavin, who was a young teenager at the time, with a no-sound, 8mm film camera.
Robbie says the camera "was a 'Holiday Metermatic' camera with three different lenses on a rotating turret and about 20-secs filming per 'take' with a clockwork drive. Cost £19/19/6 at James Smiths from memory, in early 1966. I think it was 2 weeks work for me in May school holidays at £7 approx per week, thus the shortfall and lots of lawns mowed and my first two films were 50' reels of Kodachrome II which cost a lot too... didn't have a projector so made a magnifying glass in a Meccano frame and just looked at each frame individually and spliced bits together from there. About two months later I bought a manual reel-to-reel editor with a little screen and used that, it was about £3 I think."
