"StocK from the Main Trunk line reaches Frankton Junction by a goods train at 7.20 p.m. "The stock is conveyed from Frankton Junction by a fast goods train taking a through load and not shunting at intermediate stations, which leaves there at 9 p.m. and is timed to arrive at Otahuhu at 2 a.m. "I trust the ebove arrangements, after being given a fair trial, will be found to work satisfactorily."
