Talk:DEV Aratere

Let's remove the tag about being too technical
I'd like to recommend removing the article tag about being too technical for a general audience. Although there is a lot of technical information, I think most people reading this article would want to know the details. 71.198.177.64 (talk) 03:21, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Let's be honest about the lack of citations
Practically all of the first part of this article is copied and pasted directly from another website. PatrickDunfordNZ (talk) 08:47, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It was added in one edit in 2006 : I have removed the copied/pasted text. As the rest of the article does not appear to be an infringement of copyright, it is not eligible for speedy deletion, so I have removed the tag. --Snigbrook ( talk ) 09:42, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Ownership
An edit to the Arahura article claimed that the Aratere is now owned by KiwiRail directly. According to the Maritime NZ website Aratere was leased back to Tranz Rail for 15 years. Assuming this started from the date of delivery, the least will run out in 2013, unless it's been cancelled or is to be extended. I can't find anything stating KiwiRail has bought out the lease. --LJ Holden 12:22, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
