We had hoped now that the summer months have commenced that the suggestions mads by us more than once in the interests of Waikato settlers would have received some consideration, and that by causing the . morning train to leave Ohaupo earlier, visitors from Waikato to' Auckland would have had an opportunity of arriving at such an hour in that city as to have enabled them to have transacted a 1 fair amounß of business' and returned : home 1 by the . afternoon' train. Instead of this the morning train which left Ohaupo at :8 a.m. does not leave till 8.10 a.m., arriving eleven minutes later in Auckland, or at five minutes instead of sixteen:' minutes to "3, o'clock; the afternoon down train leaving at a quarter past 4 o'clock as previously. Now that the days are long the morning up train —-except perhaps on days'to catch the Auckland cattle markets—might have left Ohaupo at 6.30, which would have given more than an extra ! hour aad a-half in Auckland than now, between the arriTal, of the morning up and departure of the afternoon down train. The Hamilton station (that in Victoria-street), is, we observe, now introduced into the time-.; table, the old station being styled tho " Hamilton Junction," and v various periods in. the.caseof different trains: from 15 to 20 minutes allowed for the distance . —i^ miles —between the two. An : AucJdand contemporary, we perceive, calls the. railway authorities to task for the want of punctuality which has iuaxked the management of the line, and not with? out good cause. .
