Punctuality In Transport Railway Time Is Good Time EVERY trade, business, or profession has its notable features or characteristics in which it takes a pardonable pride. For example, the New Zealand Railways system is favourably known for its safety and punctuality in train-running. A jealously-guarded tradition of the railways is "running to time. ,. This active spirit of punctuality runs through the whole service, day and night, in all weathers, the whole year round. Passengers of suburban trains know well that their arrival is usually on the tick of the scheduled time. Taking the whole of the Dominion's suburban trains, in the course of a year, the average lateness of arival (arisingfrom all causes) is only 30 secdnds. Similar j punctuality characterises, the running of the longI distance express trains. - Wellington, \Y> uA^*'^ 4th July, 1932. v/ * Genera/ Managtt N.Z.
