Definitely 100% Pure New Zealand - satire that is.
Jim Bolger is the new chairperson of Kiwi Rail, a company that was once a government department/corporation/state owned enterprise known as NZGR, NZR and Tranzrail among other things.
Jim Bolger was also the Prime Minister of the National led government that sold the railways off to private enterprise in the first place.
Further proof that here at least reality is just bad fiction.
The icing on the cake has to be the new livery.
The top picture is the old "flying tomato" livery once used by NZR (the "fruit salad" livery was the same without the grey cab sides).
The bottom picture is the new Kiwi Rail livery.
The more things change the more they stay the same.
