Re: work in New Zealand
Yes, the rail network is tiny in comparison to the UK but certainly around Wellington it's the way many people get to work and the tunnel provides fast access to the Wairarapa. They are talking about extending the electrification up to Levin on the Kapiti Line. You could certainly live away from the city and still work on the railway.
This website seems to have a few jobs at Kiwirail on it.

HHmm. Careers NZ suggest the salary range is between $42K and $52K. That is a little low . However, if you are a young couple with no kids and your OH will do any work until he found a rail job, then it may be doable.
Wellington sounds the best bet.

Re: work in New Zealand - phlebotomist & rail worker
Hiya, I am 40 and my OH is 43 (we're fairly young), we have a little girl at 3. My OH is prepared to do other work but its the length of time it would take to find the work and if we could live comfortable on my income until he did. My little girl can be quite expensive with clothing, shoes etc.
