Distance from Foxton to Levin Station about 14 miles, the road going through the prettiest scenery in the district.

As showing THE ADVATAGE OF THIS ROUTE, even during the week of the late heavy flood, the mail 8 and 27 passengers were conveyed by boat and vehicles. The route by boat was both safe and an enjoyable chunge to thepasseDgers in fact like a picnic, and all who travelled expressed themselves well pleased with the arrangements made.
