BETWEEN DOVER AND DUNKIRK BOON FOR BUSINESS MEN (British Official Wireless.) frtm Association—By Telegraph—Copyright RUGBY, February 27. A train ferry service from Dover across the English Channel to Dunkirk will be in regular service by October next. This was announced at the annual meeting, of the Southern Railway Company, under whose auspices the service will be conducted. It was . stated that it would enable business men to leave London, late at night and sleep in the same train berth until they reached Paris for breakfast. The competition of the air routes must inevitably increase, but confidence was expressed that on the London-Paris route the new train ferry service would be preferred to the air journey.
