The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
Given as scheduled, per en.wikipedia.org: "…kland Transport and KiwiRail.[13] It is scheduled to open on 13 September 2026.[14] Initial proposal…"
Stuff.co.nz reports the City Rail Link's first morning of passenger service drawing "more than double the number of commuters than usual," published 13 September 2026 - about seven weeks before the pin's stored 1-2 November 2026 date, suggesting the line actually opened earlier than the pin's stored date (matching the pin's own cited Wikipedia[1] claim that it was "scheduled to open on 13 September 2026").
1News' own title reports the City Rail Link being "handed over as opening day moves closer," published 4 July 2026, consistent with an approaching opening around the pin's stored window, though the page itself could not be verified directly.
Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most.
