Report has it that it will take about 16 months to complete thi tunnel, and that then the line will/U' opened as far as Wellsford. The" -TiS hoa station, 2 J milee beyond the W sent terminus at Kaipara Flats, will be ready to be opened at Christmas, and it is hoped that the Auckland Bailwty* League will urge on the authorities to have this done, as every mile opened i| a help to the struggling settler.:- Tilt correspondent adds: "I want again t« urge the importance of opening a daiht train to Kaipara Flats, as it eecm* jb! surd to see as many as two and tinea specials arrive in one day. If the daily train were running there would be no need for specials, and the regular train would suit settlers and the travelling public, and encourage traffic. It istobt hoped that our MJLR., Mr. John Stall? worthy, with his usual energy, will aniit take up this question and get us th| daily train."
