Mangapehi[1] (or Mangapeehi)[2] was a flag station on the North Island Main Trunk line, in the Waitomo District of New Zealand.

[5] In 1950 the station was moved almost a kilometre north, away from the sawmill,[6][7] at a cost of £13,405.

[9] A tramway was built into the bush to the east by Ellis and Burnand, initially with 11 mi (18 km) in 1903,[10] and extended further in 1904.

[5] Gradients were up to 1 in 15, requiring the use of geared Climax locos from 1905,[15] which replaced horses[16] on wooden rails.

[5] It also linked the station to the coal mines at Maniaiti / Benneydale.
