Train Whistles At Crossings
(N.Z. Press Association) WELLINGTON, June 17.

Because the Supreme Court recently ruled that a train had to sound its hooter or whistle at a crossing, the Government has produced a clause making it clear that sounding a signal approaching a crossing will be acceptable as sufficient warning.
