The police are at present investigating the presence of a railway jigger on the railway line near Fordell. station on Thursday night. It is not believed that the matter is serious, the jigger probably having been placed there as an act of mischief. The jigger was struck by a train passing, through Fordell on Thursday night, although thcdriver was apparently not aware that he had struck anything. It was found lying broken on the station platform when employees arrived at work on Friday morning, and from marks along the concrete kerbing of the platform it appeared that the jigger had been left on the line and pushed along by the train some distance before being thrown clear. It is believed that the Pgger was’left at the side of the line by workmen, and was probably placed on the track by children or some mischievous person.
