Shipping shifts and the Wyreema Kanowna rumors

A rumour of diverting the Wyreema to the China Australian trade and transfer of the Kanowna to the same route highlights pressures on coastal transport. The AU S N Co is an old subsidiary of British India Steam Navigation Co now absorbed in a larger group. The Tuicistale Shipping Commission reports losses and retrogression in coastal cargo and port wharves, while replacements by Adelaide Co boats show reduced passenger appeal and capacity. The nation faces rising agricultural production yet declining transport efficiency.
