PICNICS BY TRAIN A Popular Service The popularity of the train for the conveyance of picnic parties can be gauged from a perusal of the latest figures available. During the quarter ended March, 1928, 172,336 picnickers were carried by ordinary and special trains throughout the Dominion. Notwithstanding the exceptionally cheap rates the revenue from this source amounted to £19,119/1/7. Undoubtedly the principal reasons for the preference accorded the “Picnic Train” is the low cost and the convenient service given. Picnic organisations find it very convenient to make use of the system which permits of the inclusion in the fare of additional monies for disbursements in prizes, fruit, sweets, etc. / In the past, schools, friendly societies, trades’ unions and other organised bodies were restricted to one cheap fare excursion annually. This restriction has now been removed, and the resultant increase in business has fully justified the extension of the privilege.
