Planning for the new Auckland to Wellington overnight express began in 1963, and the concept of the train as two sets of all stainless-steel sleeping carriage trains, the north and southbound trains, usually consisting of 10 sleeping carriages, five with double and twin ensuite rooms and five more sleepers with single bedrooms (16 beds per carriage), a licensed buffet carriage and a power carriage, never changed. 516:, with 12 of these carriages being designated "Twinette" (8 x two-berth cabins incorporating separate bathrooms/showers for each cabin) and 12 being "Roomette" carriages (16 x single-berth cabins with toilet and basin facilities). Passengers could purchase dinner, breakfast and other refreshments during the night, including alcoholic beverages and souvenirs in the 476:, which effectively meant the price from Wellington to Auckland was held at $ 18 from late 1971 to early 1976, use of the train was high in 1974-75 and 1975-76.

By 1960, NZR had concluded that stainless steel carriages, which reduced maintenance costs, including avoiding the need to paint were preferable, even though this was at a cost premium of 12–20%. That meant in 1970 a per-carriage cost of $ 100,000+ for Japanese or Australian stainless steel
