Wallaceville railway station is a suburban railway station serving Wallaceville in Upper Hutt, New Zealand. The station is located on the Hutt Valley section of the Wairarapa Line, 31.3 km (19.4 mi) north of Wellington, and is served by Tranz Metro on behalf of the Greater Wellington Regional Council. Trains stopping at Wallaceville run to Wellington and Upper Hutt.
Tranz Metro tickets can be purchased from the dairy on the corner of Maclean and Ward Streets. It is popular amongst commuters as there is a large park and ride facility as well as bicycle lockers.
Currently the stretch between Upper Hutt and Trentham is single track, but the 2011 – 2012 Regional Rail Plan (RRP) proposes duplicating the track between Trentham and Upper Hutt in 2012. As a result, Wallaceville will become a double-track station.
The station was opened in 1879
