Buckland was initially a flag station, 33 mi (53 km) south of Auckland.
[1] The station opened on 20 May 1875, closed to goods on 19 December 1954, and to passengers and all traffic on 2 February 1969.
There was also a shelter shed, passenger platform, cart approach to platform, loading bank, cattle yards, urinals and a passing loop for 34 wagons.
About 1911 the loop was extended to 66 wagons, and in 1912 the line to Tuakau had 10 curves of 10 to 24 ch (1,600 ft; 480 m) radius, reduced to three 30 ch (2,000 ft; 600 m) curves, and the gradient eased from 1 in 40 to 1 in 100, at a cost of £11,000.
