CORRESPONDENCE
P.J.Q.: You and we were up the tree (but we got the apple if we missed the sheep). A. C. Eames (Kerikeri): Thank you for the tip. It shall be taken. S.N.S. (Coromandel): Did your mail arrive? G. Tisbury (Invercargill): Says the shunting problem could be solved with New Zealand rolling stock by "slipping’’ one of the trucks. That is, breaking the coupling between the engine and the truck just before they reach a set of points and changing the points as one unit has passed. All Correspondents: It has been suggested that the Page should include a weekly general knowledge test, and that readers might like to submit tests. Will you let us know if you like the idea? E.W.M. (Katikati): Yes, the boot is waving uncertain in the problematical air. No formality, please.
