The Taupo Totara Timber Company Railway was a bush tramway constructed by the Taupo Totara Timber Company (TTT) to link their milling centre at Mokai with the New Zealand Government Railways line (NZR) at Putāruru in the Waikato region on the North Island of New Zealand. The more than 51 miles (82 km) long light railway line was operated from 1903 to 1944 by the Taupo Totara Timber Company. After the closure of the Mokai mill, the NZR purchased the 19 miles (31 km) stretch between Putāruru and the Kinleith Mill south of Tokoroa.[2] This stretch underwent a major reconstruction, and is now(2024) part of the NZR's Kinleith Branch Line.
