RAILWAYS STATEMENT (1st July, 1907). BY THE MINISTER FOR RAILWAYS. THE HON, WM. HALL-JONES

Mr. Speaker,— In presenting my first"Railways Statement I have the gratification of announcing that the buoyancy which has been the leading characteristic of the railway traffic for the past twelve years has again manifested itself in a remarkable degree during the fiscal year just ended. The operations from both the traffic and revenue point of view have therefore been highly satisfactory. The earnings, which exceeded the estimate by no less than £174,600, and last year's revenue by £274,896, are the highest yet attained in the history of the railways of the colony. The results may be summarised thus:— Year 1007 Year 1906 Total earnings .. .. .. .. .. 2,624,600 2.349,704 Total expenditure.. .. .. .. ..1,812,482 1,621,239 Net profit on working .. .. .. .. £812,118 £728,465 GENERAL The mileage of line open for traffic on the 31st March, 1907, was 2,456 miles, as against 2,406 miles for the previous year. The average miles operated during the year was 2,427. The following extensions were opened : — Omakau-Alexandra .. .. .. .. _ 17 68 Kohatu-Tadmor .. .. .. .. .. 10 28 Otarama - Broken Kiver .. .. .. .. 6 52 Ethelton-Domett .. .. .. .. 8 34 Hokitika-Ruatapu.. .. .. .. .. mt 6 65 50 7 The capital cost of lines open for traffic, including plant and steamers on Lake Wakatipu, has increased from £22,498,972 last year to £23,504,272 for the year under review. The net revenue, £812,118, is equal to a return of 3-45 per cent, on the capital invested in the open lines, and 319 per cent, on the total capital (£25,438,568) invested in open and unopened lines. The Kawakawa Section has again failed to pay actual working-expenses, the deficit being £392. The number of train-miles run during the year was 6,755,454, being an increase of 341,881 miles over the previous year. The increased mileage represents additional facilities to meet the requirements of the large business done during the year, and has cost £86,000. The permanent increase to the train-service represents 20,375 miles per annum. The following figures, which give the record of the late arrivals of the principal trains during the year, indicate that, notwithstanding the heavy passenger traffic carried in connection with the New Zealand International Exhibition, shows, races, holidays, and the unavoidable delays resulting from floods and accidents, the trains have maintained commendable punctuality.

The total number of ordinary passengers carried during the year was 9,600,786, an increase of 774,404 over the previous year. Season tickets issued numbered 165,504, an increase of 17,515.f1The number of workers' twelve-trip tickets included in theselfigures was 44,015, and of workers' weekly tickets available on suburban lines 85,960. The steady increase in the issue of workers' tickets is a most gratifying indication that the workers for whose benefit they were introduced are taking advantage in growing numbers of the facilities offered them to reside in the suburban areas. Holiday-excursion tickets issued numbered 856,412, an increase of 118,737 over the previous year. The issue of school, factory, and friendly-society excursion tickets, however, only reached a total of 95,664. There was thus a decrease of 24,556 passengers under this head. The decrease in the number of children carried amounted to 7,312, and of adults to 17,244. The business these figures represent was not lost, but was merely diverted into another channel. The fact of there being a decrease of 5,000 children and 9,900 adults carried at school-excursion rates in the Canterbury District is eloquent testimony to the attractions of the Exhibition, which impelled those usually content with a school picnic to forsake the beaten track and journey instead to the Exhibition at Christchurch, regardless of the difference in fare and contingent expenses of such a trip as compared with the nominal outlay involved in the school excursion. The coaching and goods traffic show substantial increases under all the headings but one, the exception being the grain traffic, which shows a falling-off of 1,551 tons. In the coaching traffic the increases have been—-parcels, 37,892; horses, 762; carriages, 64; dogs, 1,984:. and in live-stock and goods traffic—cattle, 13,720; sheep, 1,312,316 ; pigs, 22,520 head; chaff, lime, &c, 23,432 tons ; wool, 12,075 tons ; firewood, 2,726 tons ; timber, 33,302 tons ; merchandise, 83,796 tons ; minerals, 196,898 tons: representing a total increase in goods and live-stock tonnage of 409,398 tons. The increase of 1,312,316 in the number of sheep carried during the year is the highest yet recorded in any single year in the history of the railways. The large movement of sheep which took place was in a measure due to the drought, which caused a scarcity of feed in the Canterbury and Otago Districts, compelling owners to transfer their flocks temporarily to other parts of the colony where feed was more plentiful. It may be interesting to note that the actual increase of 1,312,316 sheep almost equalled the total sheep traffic carried in the year 1893. The average number of men employed during the year was 10,858, against 9,795, an increase of 1,063. During the year 223 members of the permanent staff resigned, 69 retired on superannuation, 37 died, 98 were dismissed, 1,050 were engaged, 6 who had been placed on the Superannuation Fund as " medically unfit " resumed duty. Eleven appeals against decisions of the Department were heard by the Railway Boards during the year: 8 were'dismissed, the punishment in 3 cases was mitigated. Twelve members of the Second Division were promoted to the First Division during the year. The sum of £3,649 has""been allowed T as~"compensation and compassionate allowance to members retired from the service and to relatives of members deceased. This sum includes £3,521 paid under the Workers' Compensation for Accidents Act. A vigorous policy has been pursued in connection with the building of rollingstock in the railway workshops. This has resulted in 3 new four-cylinder balanced compound tender engines, 60 new cars, 11 bogie brake-vans, 467 wagons —equal in capacity to 1,097 ordinary four-wheeled wagons —and 625 tarpaulins being added to the stock during the year. New steel axles to the number of 1,449 have been placed under cars, vans, and wagons in substitution for old axles. All new rolling-stock built for the Auckland, Wellington - Napier - New Plymouth, and Hurunui-Bluff Sections was fitted with the Westinghouse brake before leaving the railway workshops. Machinery of an improved type and greater capacity has been added to the equipment of the railway workshops. Such appliances increase the efficiency of the shops, and enable them the better to fulfil their important functions in relation to the railways. The whole of the rolling - stock, machinery,' and track, bridges, buildings, and other structures connected with the lines throughout the colony, have been kept in a thoroughly efficient condition. 120J miles of track were relaid—viz., 84| miles of main line with standard 70 lb. steel rails, and 36 miles of branch lines with 53 lb. steel rails that had been removed from the main line.

Nearly 300,000 new sleepers were laid and 306,000 cubic yards of ballast used on the track. The strengthening of a number of important bridges in various parts of the colony to enable them to carry the largest class of locomotive was put in hand during the year. Many improvements were made at stations in regard to office, goods-shed, and siding-accommodation, water-services, erection of verandahs, installation of electric and gas lighting, and houses for staff. New station-buildings were provided at Dunedin, Blenheim, Waimate, Warrington, and flag-station equipment at Mackaytown, Owharoa, Winiata, Te Kuiti, and Menzies' Ferry. A large number of other works calculated to ultimately promote the public interests and the efficiency of the railway service were undertaken. Some were completed and others are still in hand, but are being pushed on to completion as rapidly as possible. On the 26th March an accident quite unprecedented in this colony occurred at Lyttelton, when a Fairlie engine drawing the extra express train on to the Ferry Wharf failed to stop the train, and was pushed bodily forward. The wheels and under-gear of the engine becoming detached fell into the harbour, while the remaining portion of the engine remained suspended over the end of the wharf. On the 29th March a butting collision occurred at Bankside between a night mixed train from Christchurch to Ashburton and a special train conveying Volunteers from Timaru to the encampment at Sheffield and Racecourse Hill. The two engines, a horse-box, and a carriage were extensively damaged. The driver of the Christchurch engine and a Volunteer in the Timaru special were injured, but I urn glad to say that no lives were lost. The accident resulted from the driver and guard of the Christchurch train overlooking their crossing with the special. The driver of the special acted with great promptitude. Hearing the Christchurch train whistle, he concluded it had passed Bankside and was approaching Rakaia Bridge. He at once brought his train to a stand with a view to setting back, but before he could get it in motion the Christchurch train struck it. The driver of the Christchurch train also did his best to avert the accident when he realised the position, and stuck to his post throughout. The accident blocked the line completely, but a temporary loop was promptly laid, through which all trains were enabled to pass without delay. REVENUE. The gross revenue for the year amounted to £2,624,600, and exceeded the estimate by £174,600 and the gross revenue for the preceding year by £274,896. The net revenue, £812,118, was £83,653 in excess of the previous year. Passenger revenue shows an increase of £99,201, season tickets £5,980, coaching traffic £9,270, goods and live-stock £152,648, miscellaneous and rent £7,797. The receipts per trainmile amounted to 93'00d. as against 87 # 75d. for the previous year. The earnings of the Lake Wakatipu steamers amounted to £6,159, as against £5,986 last year. The net return was equal to 6 - 55 per cent, on the capital cost. EXPENDITURE. The expenditure, including the sum of £5,082 incurred in connection with the Lake Wakatipu steamers, amounted to £1,812,482, an increase of £191,243 over the previous year, and absorbed 69*06 per cent, of the revenue, as against 69 per cent. for the previous year.

The increased expenditure has been incurred on the Whangarei Section, £171 ; Kaihu, £21 ; Auckland, £16,111 ; Gisborne, £772 ; Wellington - Napier - New Plymouth, £10,798 ; Hurunui-Bluff,

r>^-2

£35,908; Westland, £2,196; Nelson, £650; and Picton, £1,891. The cost of maintenance has decreased on the Kawakawa Section, £818 ; Westport, £616. , The cost of maintenance and equipment of the lines has been increasing annually for the past ten years. This is largely due to the change in the circumstances of the colony. The era of prosperity entered upon in 1895, and continued uninterruptedly since that date, has resulted in such an enormous increase in the railway traffic as compared with the business done in 1895, that the demand for transport facilities has entirely outgrown the capacity of the lines as originally laid and equipped. The adoption of a heavier standard of rails and the strengthening of the various structures to admit of the employment of engines of greater power and rolling-stock of greater capacity, both of which are essential to deal satisfactorily with the large traffic that it has for some time past been apparent the New Zealand Government Railways will require to handle, became matters of paramount importance. Works connected with the betterment of the lines have therefore been vigorously pushed on during the last few years, and as a consequence the expenditure has shown an upward tendency. The condition of the lines to-day is, however, better than at any period in the history of the colony, and the time may confidently be looked forward to when as a result of the judicious expenditure that has been made in their betterment the cost of maintenance will decrease. The cost of carrying out the works and of maintaining the lines and their equipment has been materially affected by the advance in the price of material and rate of wages. This colony is not, however, singular in this respect, as quite recently I observed that the cost of maintaining the leading railroads in the United Kingdom and America was being considerably affected from the same cause,, and that many railway companies have been making pointed reference to the effect the increased cost in the materials has had on the net result of operating their lines. Additions and improvements to lines and structures costing £20,362 which might fairly have been debited to capital have been made during the year and charged to working- expenses. increased expenditure in the Traffic Branch is due to the additional trainmileage consequent on improved train-services, extra staff to meet the requirements of the large expansion of the business done during the year, the working of the interlocking and tablet systems, reduction in the daily hours of guards and signalmen, and the increase in wages and allowances to Division 2. In the Locomotive Branch the increase is due to extra train-mileage, heavy renewals and repairs, increased consumption and cost of coal, reduction made in the hours of drivers and firemen, increase in the staff, and also in the wages and allowances to members of Division 2. The increase in the cost of management is mainly incidental to the scale increase of salaries of the staff under the Classification Act. The sum of £308,893 was expended under head " Additions to Open Lines " and charged to Capital Account. Of this £200,843 was expended on rolling-stock, tarpaulins, Westinghouse brake, machinery for workshops, and cranes. The roll-ing-stock in respect to which the charges were made consists of 3 locomotives, 59 carriages, 10 brake-vans, 95 bogie and 240 four-wheel wagons, 625 tarpaulins, and 2 cranes completed on 31st March last; and 30 locomotives, 112 carriages, 15 brake-vans, 139 bogie and 748 four-wheel wagons, incomplete but in hand on that date. £108,050 was spent in providing telegraph and telephone facilities, signals, and interlocking, tablet, and safety appliances, bridges, fencing, ballast and quarry plant, sidings, purchase of land, furnaces for foot-warmers, weighbridges, and departmental offices.

. . , CONCLUDING REMARKS AND FORECAST. In November, 1905, it was decided to grant the members of the Second Division of the Railway Staff certain monetary allowances in addition to the regular rates of pay assigned to them under the Government Railways Department Classification Act, and provision for the continuation of such allowances for the ensuing year has been made in the estimates to be submitted to Parliament. I recognise, however, that this method of dealing with the matter for any lengthened period is inadvisable, as it debars the member from receiving the benefits of the allowances when superannuated. I am, moreover, convinced that, having regard to the important part played by the railways in the development of the resources, industries, and settlement of the colony, to the general prosperity and consequent high wages ruling in other walks of life, the enhanced cost of living, and the important duties the employees are called upon to perform, the time has arrived when the Schedule to the Government Railways Department Classification Act should be reviewed. I purpose, therefore, during the present session to submit to Parliament proposals for embodying the allowances already granted in the Schedule to the Act, and for making such other alterations as are necessary to place the service on a better footing in respect to pay. The deviation of the railway-line at New Plymouth which was put in hand during the year has made considerable progress, and it is anticipated that it will be completed in the course of a few months. The work connected with the Auckland-Penrose, Dunedin-Mosgiel, AddingtonRolleston, and Lower Hutt - Wellington duplication is progressing favourably. I regret that the anticipations expressed in last year's Statement in regard to the contractor for the delivery of stone for the Wellington - Lower Hutt duplication being able to overtake all arrears of work were not fulfilled. Operations were therefore much retarded, and ultimately the Railway Department determined the contract, and undertook the whole of the work itself. This change has had satisfactory results, ample '■ supplies of stone coming regularly to hand, enabling a large amount of stone protective walling and earthwork to be carried out during the year. The progress made will enable a further length of double line to be opened shortly. Interlocking points and signals were installed and brought into operation at Lyttelton, Dannevirke, Upper Hutt, and north end of Christchurch Station yard. Temporary systems (two) were also installed at Dunedin. Similar appliances for Timaru, Stratford, and Waiareka Junction are in hand, as is also the special electric pneumatic system which will be the permanent system for Dunedin. Forty-eight of Tyer's electric tablet train-signalling instruments were installed and brought into use on sections Waitati Oamaru and Invercargill Bluff. Extensions of the system, embracing lines between Mosgiel and Balclutha, Omakau and Clyde, and Masterton and Woodville, are in hand. With a view to facilitating the exchange of tablets with fast through trains automatic exchangers have been fitted up at twenty-five stations, where they are giving satisfactory reuslts. It is intended to extend these appliances as circumstances permit. The electric tablet has now been installed over a total of 688 miles, covering sections—Henderson to Auckland, Onehunga and Morrinsville, Longburn to New Plymouth, Te Aro to Masterton, Palmerston North to Woodville, Lyttelton to Heathcote, Rangiora to Rolleston, Oamaru to Mosgiel, Wingatui to Omakau, Bluff to Winton, Makarewa to Riverton, Westport to Granity, and Greymouth to Ngahere. The staff and ticket working is also in operation over 67 miles of line. Considerable extensions of the railway telegraph and telephone systems have been made during the year. These systems, which are highly essential to efficient railway working, now total 1,873 miles of wire, and will be further extended from time to time until they embrace the whole of the railway-lines of the colony. In January last floods of an unprecedented character occurred on the Auckland Section. The lines in various parts of the section were seriously damaged, and train-

services dislocated for a considerable time. The interruption between Mercer and Ngaruawahia was very serious, and extended over a period of a fortnight. The Foxton line was also interrupted on two occasions for short periods from similar causes, traffic being suspended in both cases. Motor services have been established between the Upper Hutt and Lower Hutt, and Auckland and Henderson. The experiment has not so far proved remunerative, but I am hopeful that better results will be achieved after a more extended trial as the services become better known and settlement extends. With a view to relieving the congestion of traffic that occurs between Milton and Clarksville, and consequent train-delays that occasionally arise at the present time, it has been decided to duplicate the line between these stations, and an immediate commencement will be made with the work. The North Island Main Trunk line being within measurable distance of completion, and there being already indications that a very heavy traffic'will result therefrom, the question of providing locomotive power and rolling-stock equipment in readiness for the opening of the line has been engaging close attention. Engines of great power will be required to successfully negotiate at a reasonable speed the heavy grades ruling on the ninety-one miles of line separating Taihape and Taumarunui. The success which has been achieved by the "A " class four-cylinder balanced-compound already running in the South Island indicates that an engine of a similar type, but with certain modifications, will meet all the requirements of the traffic on the heavy grades of the Main Trunk. Designs have been prepared accordingly, and eight large-tender four-cylinder balanced-compound locomotives of a special type are now in course of construction, and will be completed in readiness for the opening of the line. Owing to the length of the line and the fact that an essential feature of the time-table will be the establishment of a service that will enable the through journey between Auckland and the Bluff to be made in the shortest possible time nighttravelling will be unavoidable and sleeping-cars an indispensable adjunct to the equipment of the through trains. Careful investigation has been made with the view to the adoption of a car that will give the maximum of comfort and convenience to travellers and be at the same time best adapted to the lines. Plans for 40 bogie cars, 4 refreshment-cars, and 8 bogie brake-vans for special use on the North Island Main Trunk trains have been prepared, and the construction of the vehicles has been put in hand. In continuation of the policy enunciated in 1903, that private engineering shops in the colony would be given an opportunity of tendering for the building of railway rolling-stock, a contract has been let to Messrs. A. and G. Price, of the Thames, to build 20 tender engines of the four-cylinder balanced compound type, and the firm has already made a commencement with the work. With a view to keeping pace with the increasing business and further augmenting the stock, a comprehensive programme has been prepared for the year ending 31st March, 1908. Under this, stock consisting of 10 " W.F." engines, 43 cars (giving seating accommodation for 2,150 passengers), 1,234 wagons (with a carrying-capacity of 10,553 tons), and 18 brake-vans will be put in hand during the year, and, taken in conjunction with the rolling-stock now under construction in the Workshops, will furnish constant employment for a very large number of the artisans of the colony, and with a view to expediting the building of the stock the workshops at Hillside and Newmarket are working two shifts, while the Addington and Petone shops are wo king overtime. The staff of all these shops Ins been materially increased to enable these arrangements to be satisfactorily carried out. The opening of the Broken River Section of the Midland Railway on the Canterbury side in November last enabled the journey, Christchurch to Hokitika, Greymouth, and Reefton, and vice versa, to be made in one day ; and a tri-weekly trainservice was inaugurated on this basis in conjunction with Messrs. Cassidy and Co.'s coaches. During the Exhibition season the overland route was very largely availed of," consequently arrangements were made for a continuation of the service; and,

although the facilities are not likely to be availed of to any appreciable extent during the winter, it is recognised that the shortening of the journey by the oneday service will be of great benefit to the commercial community as well other travellers. The heavy demands made upon the railways by the Exhibition traffic, which continued for a period of six months, were met successfully, and I "am glad to be able to record the fact that the train and fare arrangements throughout were satisfactory. Holiday excursion-fares to Christchurch prevailed on all lines for the whole period the Exhibition was open, and special-excursion trains and fares were arranged from time to time as circumstances warranted. The steamship companies, in conjunction with whom through tickets were issued, displayed a commendable desire to assist the project, and the facilities they provided tended greatly to popularise the arrangements for through rail and sea journeys between North and South Islands. The bookings to Christchurch during the Exhibition season were:— Firt-elass. Second-class. Total. Amount. 76,649 276,104 352,753 £80,386 These results axe most gratifying from every standpoint. The opening of the new station at Duned n in November last materially assisted the Department in connection with the heavy traffic of the Exhibition, and the accommodat on provided has proved ample for all purposes. The whole of the work connected with the undertaking was carried out by the staff of the Department, and reflects great credit on all concerned.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE GENERAL MANAGER OF NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT RAILWAYS. New Zealand Government Railways, Head Office, Sir,— Wellington, June 29th, 1907. I have the honour to report upon the working of the open railways for the financial year ended the 31st March, 1907 :— The capital cost has increased from £22,498,972 to £23,504 272. The revenue was £2,624,600 against £2,349,704, an increase of £274,896. The net revenue was £812,118 as against £728.465 last yea/, an increase of £83,653. The expenditure for the year under review has been £1,812,482 against £1.621,239, an increase of £191,243. The expenditure per cent, of revenue was 69-06 as compared with 69-00 last year. The rate of interest on capital was £3 9s. Id. as compared with £3 4s. 9d. last year. The revenue per train-mile was 7s. 9d. and the expenditure per train-mile ss. 4Jd. as compared with 7s. 3|d. and ss. OJd. respectively last year. The following extensions have been opened during the year : — M. th. Omakau-Alexandra .. .. .. .. .. 17 68 Kohatu-Tadmor .. .. .. .. .. .. .. 10 28 Otarama-Broken River .. .. .. .. .. 652 EtV-lton-Domctt .. .. .. .. .. .. 834 Hokitika-Ruatapu . . .. . . . .. .. 665 50 7 The total mileage added to the system during the year was thus 50 miles and 7 chains, making the total mileage open for traffic on 31st March last 2,456 miles as against 2,406 miles at the close of the previous year. During the year 9,600,786 ordinary passengers were carried, yielding a revenue of £823,067 and 165,504 season tickets were issued, the revenue derived therefrom being £68,986. There was thus an increase of 774,404 ordinary passengers and £99,201 revenue and of 17,515 season tickets and £5,980 revenue over the traffic carried under these heads during the previous year. 55,881 children and teachers and 39,783 adults travelled by school and factory excurisons during the year, the revenue derived therefrom being £6,515; The falling-off under this head was undoubtedly the result of the attractions of the New Zealand International Exhibition, which induced parties to avail themselves of the very cheap through fares prevailing and to visit Christchurch and the Exhibition in preference to following the usual practice of organizing local picnics and travelling thereto atthe school and factory fares. 856,412 passengers travelled at holiday excursion fares, yielding a revenue of £194,185, an increase of 118,737 excursionists and £53,245 revenue as compared with the previous year. The coaching and goods traffic has been well maintained during the year, and shows substantial increases under all headings with the exception of grain. Increases. Coaching. —Parcels, 37,892 ; horses, 762 ; carriages, 64 ; dogs, 1984. Revenue, £9,270. Goods. —Cattle and calves, 13,720 ; sheep, 1,312,316 ; pigs, 22,520 head ; 146 drays ; chaff, lime, &c, 23,432 tons ; wool, 12,075 tons ; firewood, 2,726 tons ; timber, 33,302 tons ; merchandise, 83,796 tons ; minerals, 196,898 tons. Revenue, £160,445. Total increase in goods and live-stock tonnage, 409,398 tons. Decrease. Grain, 1,551 tons. Large additions were made to the train services during the year, included in which are extra trains between Auckland and Henderson and between Wellington and Upper Hutt. A daily train for workmen from Belfast to Christchurch has been put on, and a tri-weekly rail and coach service instituted between Greymouth and Christchurch, making the through journey in one day. The extra facilities afforded represent an addition of 341,881 miles to the train-mileage of the preceding year, bringing the total train-mileage for the year under review up to 6,755,454 miles. Steady progress is being made in interlocking points and signals, installation of electric tablet and improvement of railway telegraph and telephone facilities, all of which tend to increase the safety of railway working. In anticipation of the increased traffic likely to result from the International Exhibition, opened at Christchurch in November, 1906, special arrangements were made for the running of additional fast trains between Oamaru and Christchurch, with a view to relieving the ordinary mail and express trains of the traffic between stations north of Oamaru and Christchurch. It was, however, found that after the first rush of business incident il to the opening of the Exhibition and the Christchurch Carnival week was over that the two through trains were quite capable of dealing satisfactorily with the business offering, and the Oamaru-Christchurch special service was discontinued..

During the currency of the Exhibition, holiday excursion tickets to Christchurch were issued from all stations in the South Island, and special through tickets for the rail and steamer journey were by arrangement Union Steamship Company, Northern Steamship Company, and Messrs. Huddart Parker and Co. issued from all stations in the North Island to Christchurch. In addition to the general holiday excursion issue to Christchurch thus obtaining during the six months the Exhibition was open, specially cheap fares were arranged on suitable occasions for rail and also rail and steamer journeys to Christchurch. The results of these cheap excursions were, however, disappointing. The new station at Dunedin was opened in November. It afforded facilities and accommodation that were much required for satisfactorily dealing with the business. Its advantages were very apparent during the heavy traffic connected with the Exhibition and holiday season. The refreshmentroom connected with the station is conducted by the Department, and supplies a convenience much appreciated by the travelling public. During January, traffic in the Auckland district was seriously interfered with by heavy floods, which did considerable damage to the line between Mercer and Ngaruawahia. Floods on the Foxton Branch also necessitated suspension of traffic on two occasions. In October the B goods-shed, at ChrLstchurcb, took fire and was with its contents totally destroyed. Steps were immediately taken to provide for its replacement and also for the temporary accommodation necessary to enable the business to be carried on. Three locomotives, 60 carriages, 11 bogie brake-vans, and 467 wagons were built in the railway workshops and added to the stock during the year. Fifty wagons were also built for the Public Works Department for railway-construction purposes, and one wagon for the Napier Harbour Board. On the 31st March 18 locomotives, 112 bogie cars, 15 bogie brake-vans, and 988 wagons were under construction in the railway workshops of the colony, in addition to which Messrs. Price Bros., Thames, were building under contract 20 locomotives for the Department. I regret to report that a collision occurred near Bankside on the morning of the 29th March between the 10.45 p.m. mixed train from Christchurch to Ashburton and a special conveying Volunteers from Timaru to the Easter encampment at Sheffield. The accident resulted from the Christchurch train overrunning the crossing-place. Both engines and portions of the rolling-stock on each train were extensively damaged, but I am glad to say no lives were lost. Maintenance. Mr. John Coom, Chief Engineer, reports as follows : — Permanent-way.— The track was maintained in good order, and its present condition may safely be said to be superior to that at any other period in the history of the railways. Eighty-four miles and a half of the main line were relaid with 70 lb. steel material, and thirty-six miles of branch lines were relaid with second-hand 53 lb. rails removed from main lines. 296,233 new sleepers were put into the track ; of these 36,927 were imported hardwood, and the balance, 259,306, native timber, 78,363 of which were creosoted. The number of sleepers used was considerably less than during the previous year. Owing to efficient maintenance in the past arrears have been gradually overtaken, and a further slight reduction may still be looked for in the future. The following shows the reduction which has taken place during the past four years : 1903-4, 352,896 ; 1904-5, 331,910 ; 1905-6, 336,424 ; 1906-7, 296,233. The cost of track renewals was high, due to the amount of relaying on branch lines, the increased cost of materials, and higher rate of wages. .Slips and Floods. —Several slips of minor importance occurred in various districts, causing slight delays. In January last floods in the Auckland district caused serious damage to the track and consequent dislocation of business between Mercer and Ngaruawahia ; the traffic was interrupted for a fortnight. On two occasions the Foxton Branch was flooded, traffic being suspended for brief periods. Ballasting.—2l2,slo cubic yards of gravel ballast and 33,650 cubic yards of broken metal was put into the track during the year. Bridges, &c. —The bridges and culverts were maintained in safe condition, a considerable amount of work in the way of renewal and strengthening having been carried out. The principal works in hand during the year were : Wanganui district, Wangaehu Bridge ; Wellington district, Waipoua and Ngawapurua Bridges and completion of Ormondville Viaduct; Christchurch district, Selwyn, Rakaia, and North Rangitata Bridges ; Invercargill district, Mataura Bridge, Glenham Branch. Water Services. —Several improvements were made and the services generally maintained in a satisfactory condition. _ | Signals and Interlocking and Safety Appliances.—The Signal and Electrical Engineer s report is attached hereto. Wharves. —These were maintained in good order. Strengthening and renewal of the Greymouth wharves were in hand ; repairs to the small wharves at Nelson were completed, and the repairs of the wharf at Picton commenced. As mentioned in my last report, additions to the wharves at Nelson, and entire renewal of the Picton Wharf, are works requiring early attention. Buildings. —The new station buildings at Dunedin and Blenheim were completed. New station buildings were provided at Waimate and Warrington, and flag-stations at Mackaytown, Owharoa, Winiata, and Menzies' Ferry. Goods-sheds were erected at Ealing and Washdyke, and an engine-shed at Glenham. The expenditure under this head for the year amounted to £53,185, which is higher than for any previous year.

Timber increased by 18,310 tons, and coal by over 20,000 tons. Butter exported from Onehunga totalled 3,904 tons, an increase of 723 tons. In January a serious interruption of traffic was caused by floods, the line between Pokeno and Huntly being chiefly affected. Communication between Auckland and the Waikato district was entirely suspended for a fortnight, and for a further period of a week only a limited service could be run during repairs to the line. The effects of this serious dislocation of business were seriously felt for some time after traffic was resumed. ... - North Auckland Sections. Whangarei. —Revenue, £26,927 ; an increase of £1,274. Both passenger and goods traffic have been well maintained. The timber traffic increased by over 5,000 tons, coal by over 2,000 tons. .. Kawakawa.— Revenue, £1,935; an increase of £135.
