ANNUAL REPORT ON WORKING RAILWAYS BY THE NEW ZEALAND RAILWAY COMMISSIONERS.

Presented to Parliament in pursuance of " The Government Bailways Act, 1887."

To the Hon. the Ministek for Public Works. N.Z. Government Railways, • • • Head Office, Sib,— Wellington, 16th June, 1893. We have the honour, in compliance with the direction in section 61 of " The Government Railways Act, 1887," to submit, for presentation to Parliament, the annual report on the working railways of New Zealand for the twelve months ended the 31st March, 1893. Revenue, Expenses, and Traffic. The returns of traffic, revenue, and expenses of the various sections of railways are presented in the same form as in the annual reports of previous years. Complete details of the expenditure in every branch of the service and other particulars of the year's transactions are given therein. The outcome of the year's work is as follows :— £ s. d. Gross earnings ... ... ... ... ... 1,181,521 13 10 Working-expenses ... ... ... ... ... 732,141 11 10 Net profit .. ... ... ... £449,380 2 0 This profit gives a return of £3 Is. per cent, on .£14,733,120, which is the estimated cost of the 1,886 miles of railways open for traffic up to the 31st March, 1893. The anticipated improvement in traffic and revenue referred to in the last annual report has been more than realised. The estimated revenue has been exceeded by £41,521; the working-expenses have exceeded the estimate of £717,000 given in the annual report by £15,141. The traffic for the last fourteen years has been as follows : —

All branches of traffic show improvement; the revenue also has substantially increased —under the head of Passengers by over £26,000, and under the head of Goods by over £36,000. The expenses have risen in a less ratio than the revenue, the proportion being 6L97 per cent., against 63 - 34 for the former year. This ratio is lower than it has been for the last ten years. Increased expenses arise from increased traffic as well as from exceptional flood damages; more power and wear-and-tear are involved with the heavier loads, greater mileage open, and the increasing age of the system. The increase in revenue at a much greater rate than that of the expenses, however, must be satisfactory, and the improved net results, taken in connection with the very large reductions in fares and in rates and charges on the local productions, must be a source of congratulation to the colony. For the coming year the revenue is estimated at £1,176,000, and the expenses at £732,000. A diminished grain traffic is expected, on account of the lighter yield and smaller area in crop. The length provided for in the estimated expenses is 1,892 miles, the additional mileage being : the Kaihu Railway, 17 miles ; Te Aro Extension, 1 mile; Mangaonoho Extension, 4 miles. The estimated average expenses per mile are £387, against £390 during the past year. . . . Condition op Lines and Appliances. The lines and appliances have been thoroughly maintained, and their character and capacity have, as hitherto, been improved in the process of maintenance from working-expenses. The Commissioners have derived advantages from the improvements inaugurated and carried on under the previous management; and they have continued the same system of improvement under maintenance vigorously during their administration. During last session a return (D.-Ha) relating to engines and rolling-stock was made to the House of Representatives, explaining very fully the manner in which this portion of the plant had been improved and increased. Notwithstanding the carefully-considered assurances and data already given by the Commissioners in that paper, they have regretted to find it subsequently stated to the House that the capital of the railways had been reduced by the sale of twenty-six thousand pounds' worth of stock. The Commissioners repeat the statements they made in paper D.-11a, and deny the correctness of the statement made to the House that the capital of the railways has been reduced. They repeat what has been pointed out in their former reports. The railways have been improved in value during maintenance by relaying old 401b. iron rails with 531b. steel; by increasing the capacity of the sidings, passenger- and goods-sheds ; by renewing soft-timber structures with either masonry, hardwood, or iron ; by increasing the aggregate power of their engines, the passengercarriage accommodation, the wagon capacity, and the brake-power. The execution of new work for private companies, and the sales of old plant and materials, have in no way at any time diminished or trenched upon the capital. New plant, supplied from working-expenses, of a more powerful, more commodious, more capacious, and better class, replaces the old plant abandoned and sold, and the capital value of the railways has been increased by the system pursued. General. It is desirable to make some remarks on the aims of and the position attained by the railway administration, for which the Commissioners are responsible to Parliament, during the four years of their office ending last financial year. It has frequently happened that the Commissioners have been pursued by demands that they should manage the railways on " commercial principles " —a phrase which is very ambiguous. This idea is one of the abandoned theories of a past generation. Legislation in the United Kingdom, United States, all the nations of the Continent of Europe, Canada, and the South American Republics,

D.—2

3

has for the last quarter of a century been in the direction of compelling the railway companies to adopt principles in railway management which are opposed to the practices of commerce : there is no proper analogy between the exchange of goods and the performance of the duties of a railway carrier. To give equality of treatment to all persons using the railways under similar conditions, and to give uniformity of charges, has been the direct tendency of nearly all modern railway legislation. The processes known to commercial men, the essence of whose business lies in bargaining, are almost entirely condemned by all the civilised nations of the world as applied to charges for railway services; and commercial practice as a rule is regarded as inapplicable to railway management. The Commissioners have endeavoured to conform to the spirit of the age, believing that the railways should be worked for assisting the development of the resources of the colony, rather than in a narrower commercial spirit which has in view the exaction of the utmost farthing from the producer. In pursuing this course they have also been guided by the Government Railways Act, in which Parliament has laid down that they shall give due consideration to the promotion of settlement and the encouragement of industries. On these grounds they have made it one of their chief objects to reduce rates and charges affecting colonial productions and industries extensively. The extent to which this has been done is shown in return D.-24, presented to Parliament during last session, and in the returns attached to the annual reports. " That this principle has been applied prudently and advantageously is shown by the progressive character of the railway traffic and revenue. The average results of the four years preceding the control of the Commissioners, and of the four years of their administration, are summarised in the figures following:— Revenue. Expenses. Average for four years, 1886 to 1889 ... ... £1,009,661 £680,946 1890 to 1893 ... ... 1,128,556 705,537 Increase ... ... ... ... £118,895 £24,591 An average of 110 miles more railway has been worked during the latter four years. The capital has been increased by £1,260,283, and the interest earned on the capital has increased from £2 12s. to £3 Is. per cent. While the revenue shows this satisfactory average growth, the increase in the average expenditure has been insignificant, and contradicts the erroneous statements which have been made, charging the Commissioners with extravagance. A return furnished to the order of the House of last session shows that the salaries paid by the Commissioners of £200 a year and upwards in 1892 amounted to £41,662; in 1889, when they took office, the corresponding amount was £41,509, which indicates that care has been taken not to increase the cost of administration. Concurrently with the lowered charges, improved revenue, and economical administration, the Commissioners are able to show beyond doubt that the railways are better, the carriage and wagon stock accommodation is more extensive and convenient, and that the engine and brake powers are greater and better adapted to the traffic than when they took office. The time-tables also have been very materially improved and the train-times quickened on all the larger sections. During the year legal difficulties have arisen in connection with working the Fernhill branch. This coal siding, which was constructed by the Crown from funds supplied from private sources, has become vested in the Commissioners; it would be better if it were by Act transferred to the legal representatives of the parties who paid for its construction. Through the construction of the railway from Napier to Palmerston, and of the junction station initiated by the Government before the appointment of the Commissioners, litigation and expense to the colony have occurred from the occupation of the area needed for station purposes handed by the Minister to the Commissioners, which interferes with certain streets in Palmerston,

Very serious embarrassment and expense to the colony is liable to arise at this and other places from the present state of the law; neither the interests of the colony nor the lives and property of the public using the railways can be properly protected under the present conditions ; and it would be beneficial if the Bill agreed on by the Commissioners with the Crown Law Officers, at the request of the Government, in 1891, could be passed. The great improvements effected during late years in railway working and appliances in Europe and America have made it desirable in the interests of the colony that facilities should be afforded to the chief railway officers for personally studying them. During the past year the Commissioners made arrangements to give their Locomotive Superintendent and Chief Engineer the necessary opportunity, and they anticipate that the visit of these officers will be productive of much good in the colonial railway administration. The conduct and efficiency of the staff during the past year has been satisfactory. The demand for a railway employes insurance scheme is still urged by a large section of the staff, who are convinced of the necessity for it. The reports of the Chief Engineer for Working Railways and the Locomotive Superintendent are attached. We have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servants, James McKerrow, J. P. Maxwell, W. M. Hannat, Railway Commissioners.

APPENDICES.

APPENDIX A. Gentlemen, — . Locomotive Superintendent's Office, Wellington, 31st May, 1893. I have the honour to report upon the Locomotive Department for the year ending 31st March, 1893. The locomotives, carriages, wagons, vans, cranes, tarpaulins, machinery, and general plant, have been maintained in a thoroughly efficient condition, and in many cases have been considerably improved. The various improvements that have been effected to the locomotives aud rolling-stock generally continue to show excellent results, and warrant the department proceeding expeditiously with such works at every available opportunity. The new class W a locomotives recently built at the Addington Workshops are now running on the steep gradients between Wanganui and Turakina, and are doing excellent work. The class E locomotives, which the W a have replaced, were hauling 80 tons up the steepest gradient, whilst the new W engines are working 120 tons. Both engines are practically the same weight. ' The rebuilt E class engines are giving good results, and can be further improved when the axle loads can be increased. Locomotive Repairs and Rebuilding. —l9o locomotives have passed through the shops. Of these, 7 have been entirely rebuilt to new designs, and their tractive-power largely increased; 41 were thoroughly overhauled; 46 received heavy repairs, and 96 light repairs ; 61 were wholly painted; and 49 had the paint-work renewed or re-varnished. 128 boilers were overhauled, of which 15 had complete sets of new tubes ; 25 had tubes pieced ; 6 had new boiler-barrels; 13 new smoke-box tube-plates; 4 new copper fire-boxes complete; 4 new copper tube-plates ; 40 received heavy repairs, and 85 light repairs; 10 locomotives and 1 crane had entirely new boilers ; and 8 other new locomotive boilers are in hand. Carriage and Wagon Repairs and Rebuilding. —s26 carriages passed through the shops ; 2 new carriages were built; 18 were rebuilt to an improved type; 152 were thoroughly overhauled; 52 received heavy repairs, and 300 light repairs; 157 were painted, and 202 had the paint-work renewed. One bogie brake-van was built, and 4 were rebuilt to an improved type; 56 were thoroughly overhauled ; 22 received heavy, and 153 light repairs ; 59 were painted, and 66 had the paint-work renewed. 3,555 wagons passed through the shops :of these, 29 were rebuilt; 26 converted to improved types ; 854 thoroughly overhauled; 838 received heavy and 1,719 light repairs; 224 were fitted with standard continuous draw-gear; 1,050 were painted; and 1,040 had the paintwork renewed. Thirteen bogie wagons have had their carrying capacity increased from 14 to 16 tons each, and twenty-one four-wheeled wagons from 5 to 6 tons each. Steam Cranes and Stationary Boilers. —42 passed through the shops; 11 were thoroughly overhauled ; 3 received heavy and 28 light repairs. One received a new boiler. Tarpaulins. —4,7o3 were thoroughly repaired, and 274 new ones manufactured. ■•'Additional New Stock built in the Workshops and supplied out of Loan. — Four-wheeled Stock. — 16 highside wagons and 26 eight-ton coal-hoppers. Bogie Stock. —s highsides, 19 sheep-trucks, 3 cattle-trucks, 12 platform trucks, and 3 frozen meat trucks. Expenditure. —The expenditure per train-mile in pence has been as follows : —

The running of a heavier traffic with a diminished train-mileage will mainly account for the higher rates of locomotive expenses per train-mile. The usual returns are forwarded. I have, &c. T. F. Eotheeam, The New Zealand Eailway Commissioners, Locomotive Superintendent. Wellington.

APPENDIX B. ANNUAL REPORT ON MAINTENANCE OP NEW ZEALAND RAILWAYS. Gentlemen, — Chief Engineer's Office, Wellington, 20th June, 1893. I have the honour to report on the maintenance of the New Zealand railways for the year ending the 31st March, 1893. Extensions. —The Te Aro extension of the Wellington line was opened during the year, having a length of 1 mile 10 chains. Mileage. —The total mileage of the New Zealand railways open for traffic at the close of the financial year was 1,890 miles 40 chains. Kaihu Valley Railway. —This line was taken over on the Ist January, 1893 —16 miles 47 chains. In the following month a very severe flood occurred, which greatly damaged the line, washing out ballast and formation, and rising up to 4ft. above the rails. The approach to the bridge at 14m. 9ch. was washed away, and entailed the lengthening of this bridging. The Kaihu river-bed is much blocked with timber and snags, the accumulation of several years, consequently floods rise higher than they otherwise would, and steps are being taken to clear the course in places to remedy this. The repairing of these damages has added considerably to the expenditure on this line during the few months it has been in charge of this department. Permanent-way. —Eenewals of the lighter classes of permanent-way with heavier, and renewals of some of the heaviest classes with 531b. steel, have been effected to the length of 36 miles 77 chains in all; and new rails have been laid instead of old in general repairs to the aggregate of 1 mile 64 chains more. Included in the above there has been a mileage of about 28 miles 57 chains new rails laid in the lines. Sleepers. —The total number of new sleepers put into the road was 145,045. About 133,000 of these were due to the ordinary course of renewal. The balance of about 12,000 have been put in to increase the standard number of sleepers per mile in relaying track, so as to give a greater stability to meet the steadily-increasing traffic, and consequent necessity for the use of heavier classes of engines. The rate per mile of sleeper renewals for the year was—ordinary renewals, 70-4 per mile ; extra sleepers due to respacing, 6-3 per mile : total, 76-7 per mile. Ballasting. —A new ballast-pit has been acquired and opened on the Wanganui line, and other pits will be required to facilitate ballasting and minimise haulage. Flood-damage. —Damages from storms have been comparatively heavy. A very large slip occurred at Kamo, on the Whangarei line. A heavy flood in the Waikato Biver caused a breach at Rangiriri and other damages. Heavy slips occurred in the Manawatu Gorge. At the Summit, Wellington Section, a large slip took place, choking the tunnel-mouth. There has been almost entire immunity from damage through floods in the large southern rivers. The protective works which have been established on all the large rivers are standing well. New protective works were completed at the Pahau and Waihao Bivers, in Canterbury. At Deep Creek, near Seacliff, subsidence occurred through underground soakage, requiring about 9,000 cubic yards of stone and other material to fill up the bank which had sunk. Structures. —A great deal of reconstruction of bridges has been done. The growth of traffic is demanding an increase in weight of locomotives. To meet this a greater ratio of strength is required in the bridges. By a gradual introduction of an increased standard of strength during the past sixteen years a great deal has already been done in this direction, but on sections where the traffic has specially expanded it has been found necessary to strengthen the bridges throughout. This was completed last year between Wanganui and the Bangitikei Biver. Similar work will be taken in hand this year between Bangitikei Biver and Palmerston, and will next be continued north of Wanganui, so that the run of a heavier class of engine may be extended throughout the Wanganui Section. The deviation of the line at Carrington Boad, New Plymouth, has been completed, and a new girder bridge built over the road. A cart overbridge for the road diversion has Been constructed at Sentry Hill. The Mangaoraka Bridge, near Sentry Hill, has been renewed at a higher level, to improve the grade. The Goat Valley Bridge, near Kai-iwi, has been reconstructed in iron girders, and raised 3ft. to improve grade. The Waitangi Bridge, near Earndon, has been reconstructed in simple 20ft. spans. The Hawkins Bridge, on the Whitecliffs Branch, was reconstructed in simple 20ft. spans. At Whales Creek, near Timaru, new abutments, with iron girders of one span, have been constructed, and the old timber viaduct filled in. The Wait aid girder bridge has been scraped and painted throughout. At Kaka Creek, near Hampden, a 16ft. concrete arched culvert has been built in place of the timber viaduct, which will be removed on completion of the embankment. The Gore Bridge has been redecked. The large viaduct at Picton has had an extensive overhaul, and the Opawa traffic-bridge has been redecked. In addition, a very large number of timbers and piles have been renewed throughout the various bridges. An addition to the Onehunga Wharf has been completed. Heavy repairs have been in hand at the Port Chalmers wharves. At Greymouth the timber breastwork has been renewed throughout. Further renewals of the decking are in progress. At W T estport an extension of the staiths 600 ft. in length was completed by the Harbour Board in August last, and has been working satisfactorily. The approaches have been improved, and the whole structure lighted. The old staiths were repaired and altered to a new gradient, to correspond with the new portion. The old portion of Picton Wharf has had a thorough overhaul. New Works. —At Hastings the street approaching the station has been formed and metalled, with asphalt footpaths on each side. Napier platform has been renewed in earthwork with a concrete face. The Bailway Beserve at Stratford has been fenced in. At Christchurch a new 6in. artesian well has been put down, to provide further water-supply against fire. Millburn Station

D.—2

has been rearranged, and the building shifted to a new site further south. A coaling-crane has been erected at Gore. A new road was formed over the sand-drift near Ocean Beach, and handed over to the local body. A large extension was made in the Bluff station-yard to meet the increased traffic. The ground was reclaimed from the sea, protected with stone pitching, and three new sidings laid. Addition was also made to the station-offices. A new transit-shed has been erected on the wharf at Greymouth. An addition to the Nelson Station offices has been completed. A car- and wagon-repairing shop has been erected at Picton. Home signals have been provided at Sentry Hill, Palmerston North, and Greymouth. The signals at Christchurch and at Ashburton have been rearranged, and south distant signal provided at Clinton. New water-services have been provided at Matahiwi, Eltham, Belfast, Babbit Island, and at 18m. 60ch. on the Westport Section. A steam-pump has been erected at Palmerston South, and the water-services at Stratford, Hinds, Kurow, Gore, Biversdale, and Biverton improved. Stockyards have been provided at Makotuku, Oamaru, Kartigi, Orepuki, and Wright's Bush. A platform has been erected at the Wellington Agricultural and Pastoral Association's show-grounds near Petone, and another at School-road Station, on the Eyreton Branch; and loading-banks provided at Hamilton East, Sefton, Springston, St. Andrews, Waihao, and Waitaki South. Additional siding accommodation has been provided at Morningside, Te Boti, Danevirke, Masterton, Eketahuna, Christchurch, Southbrook, Burnham, Ladbrooks, Winchester, Pelichet Bay, Invercargill, Colac, Croydon, and Spring Grove. New houses have been erected for Stationmasters at Ashurst, Waiareka, and Mataura, and for driver at Belgrove. Eleven unoccupied houses have been removed to new sites, where they were required for occupation, and twenty-six houses have been added to. New Gonstritction. —A number of works commenced in the previous year were completed under the vote for additions to open lines, among which were the extension of Picton Wharf, improvement of grades between Halcombe and Eeilding, and between Clarendon and Milburn, cattle-loading wharf Onehunga, Wyndham goods-shed, and Petone Workshops additions. Lake Ellesmere. —This lake was let out in July, 1892. It closed again in September, 1892. Expenditure. —The cost of maintenance "for the year amounted to £262,510 35., or equal to £139-86 par mile. The increase over preceding year is chiefly in the item of permanent-way materials — i.e., new rails and sleepers. The next item of increased expense is in bridge renewals. Track surfacing is also higher than in previous years. All these increases of expenditure are due to the increase of traffic over the roads. Private Sidings. —During the year there were five new siding rights granted and nineteen old grants renewed. These have an aggregate rental of £575 per annum. Leases. —There were 187 new leases registered during the year. At 31st March, 1893, there were 909 current leases on the register, with an aggregate rental of £10,860 per annum. I have, &c, The New Zealand Bailway Commissioners. J. Henby Lowe, Chief Engineer.
