Te Kawa railway station
Te Kawa railway station was a station on the North Island Main Trunk in New Zealand, located at Te Kawa.
The railway crossed Te Kawa Swamp to the north of the station on a embankment. Culverts were included to maintain the effectiveness of eel weirs in the swamp and provide for the flow of water. A post office was open by 1909 and a drainage board set up, which was extended in 1915, by which time the station was handling traffic for Waikeria Prison.
In 1908 the station was being considered as a junction for a line to Kawhia and Raglan and by 1920 as a junction on a railway from Kawhia to Rotorua.
The line to the south of Te Kawa falls on a 1 in 183 gradient. There was a private siding for grain at the station in the 1970s and 80s.
The station site was sold in 2000.
