The Pahiatua Railcar Society (PRS) is a society located in Pahiatua, New Zealand, dedicated to the restoration of railcars and other locomotives and rolling stock formerly operated by the New Zealand Railways Department. It is notable for possessing the sole remaining examples of the RM class 88 seater and Wairarapa railcars.
Having restored Standard class railcar Rm 31 to mainline standard for use on the national railway network,[1] the Society ran its first revenue services on the Wairarapa Line at an open day on 12 February 2012.[2]
