Brunner, originally called Brunnerton, is a town in the northwest of New Zealand's South Island. It is 12 kilometres (7 mi) east of Greymouth, on the south bank of the Grey River. It is on the Midland Line railway near its junction with the Stillwater–Westport Line (SWL) in neighbouring Stillwater. Passenger trains ceased running along the SWL to Reefton and Westport in 1967, but the TranzAlpine runs the length of the Midland Line from Christchurch to Greymouth and it continues to stop in Brunner. The population was 1,144 in the 1956 census but is very small now.

dbo:abstract
  • Brunner, originally called Brunnerton, is a town in the northwest of New Zealand's South Island. It is 12 kilometres (7 mi) east of Greymouth, on the south bank of the Grey River. It is on the Midland Line railway near its junction with the Stillwater–Westport Line (SWL) in neighbouring Stillwater. Passenger trains ceased running along the SWL to Reefton and Westport in 1967, but the TranzAlpine runs the length of the Midland Line from Christchurch to Greymouth and it continues to stop in Brunner. Historically connected with coal mining, the town was the site of a major disaster in 1896, when an explosion killed 65 miners in the Brunner Mine. Other important industries in the town have included forestry. The population was 1,144 in the 1956 census but is very small now. The town, formerly called Brunnerton, was named after the explorer Thomas Brunner, who discovered coal there. (en)

  • Brunner est un village côtier du nord-ouest de l'Île du Sud de la Nouvelle-Zélande. Brunner est situé à 12 km à l'est de Greymouth sur la rive sud de la Grey River. La ville est située sur le trajet de la Midland Line, principale ligne de chemin de fer de l'île. Historiquement, la ville est très liée à l'industrie minière de charbon. La ville est le théâtre d'une catastrophe minière en 1896 qui tue soixante-cinq mineurs. La ville comprend néanmoins d'autres industries de premier plan comme l'exploitation forestière. La ville, anciennement nommée Brunnerton, fut baptisée en hommage à l'explorateur Thomas Brunner qui y découvrit le premier le charbon. (fr)
