Oio Railway Station
Oio was a station on the North Island Main Trunk line, in the Ruapehu District of New Zealand. It served the hamlet of Oio, which lay to the north of the station. It was north of Raurimu and south of Ōwhango. It was one of the many temporary railheads along the route, with work going on from 1904 to 1908. The Public Works Department transferred the station to NZ Railways on 9 November 1908, though a road had been built in 1904, by March 1905 a station yard was being formed and by April 1906 it was the railhead, with a pumice road to Makatote. By then trains were bringing ballast, platelaying was in progress and the track stretched half way to Raurimu, having been realigned due to a slip and crossing an embankment into a cutting, which was being cut. An unnamed stream, then called the Waikohatu River, was to be bridged and pile-driving was in progress for a bridge over Piopiotea Stream, the bridge girders being made in Auckland by Fraser and Co. The bridge has since been re ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Description The bonefish weighs up to and measures up to long. The color of bonefish can range from very silver sides and slight darker backs to olive green backs that blend to the silver side.
