TERMINUS FOR LINE NORTH OF AUCKLAND.
Sir,l see from to-day's issue that a con- ' siderable sum of money : is to be spent upon enlarging Mount Eden station."^ I think : now is the time 'for; fixing the terminus i' of the railway line; north of Auckland. •'I • suggest a junction-, about Mount Eden • station, the line bending sharply round, and; by tunnel and otherwise terminating in the ' gully behind the City Hall,' with an outlet to Queenstreet and -street, which would .be . quite" convenient to ; City - Market and • storage son 5 both : sides ' behind ' Queen-street. Auckland might then be ; able to do without the duplicate tunnel for some time to come, as probably the line' south of Auckland would send a Rood deal of. goods up from Newmarket. Hoping that the City Council tod Chamber of Commerce will take the matter up. Surely it ,is not intended to send'all the traffic from" the north 1 lino: round by? Newmarket much longer.
