It will run over easy country which presents no engineering difficulties so far as construction is concerned. It will, when competed, create a great increase of traffic over the Foxton line, which is not at present on apaying basis, and will prove a boon to the people inland who cannot afford the use of motor-cars to go to. Manawatu Heads.
