RAILWAY SCHEMES
NEW MOTOR ’BUSES FOR BRANCH LINES. The Railway Department is calling tenders for motor-’buses for use in various parts of New Zealand. It is officially explained that the ’buses are needed to replace mixed trains on branch lines so that tho department will be able to confine the train services to goods, and therefore will not have to maintain the tracks to such high standard. Also operating costs will be reduced. The motor-’buses will not use the rails, but will be road running vehicles.
