STATION:. „ :Now -that the amalgamation of the ' Gland Trunk and Great Western railways _Lae become assured, and that it is the In- tention to have only ale sta,tion wherei. eeer these eoads. cross each other in towels and cities, wethink the erection of the new station -house -etetlre Site 'ehoebrietvill be ' found to.be a great mistake, as it will be very. diffictilt and costly to bring the Great Western -trains to it. - If the station was ' located about four hundred yards' west of - the eite now being built upon it'would be very; easy and cheap to eennect the Great' Westelervvith it :by a switch. We think' also that it wonldehe foetid to be better, situated, as being meeeout ofthe way of the COnaMon traffic; and therefore less dan- gerous.. As the trains going west have al- ways to stop at the semaphore, ing of the station -at the location pointed " out obviates this, and would prove a great saving to the road. As fee as. the town' and the general public are concerned, the change' in the directionpointed out would be very great for several reasons ; first, it would be untebenearer_tlie-business-por tion of the town,' causing a great saving . hi 'the cost of keeping upea goodread to it; and secondly, a great ninny passen- gers, of necessity, haVe to walk to andfro to it. We thiek if -the railway authori- ties would at once look into the matter ehey would immediately suspend the erec- tion of the ststion house now under way, accept our suggestions, and thereby save money for themselves and greatly aecora-9• enmeate the peblic„.
