The Trust welcomes debate on the historical accuracy of the name Remutaka, the name that was given to the mountain range by Haunuiananaia, an ancestor of the Te Ati Hau a Paparangi people of the Whanganui region. The railway reinstatement project seeks to faithfully replicate our railway heritage - and accuracy of place names also deserves our attention and respect.
