Innisfail reports a shift from rail to road and bus transport as road and better routes to Mourilyan, Johnstone districts cut rail goods and passenger traffic. The Chamber of Commerce proposed a rail motor on the Innisfail to Mourilyan line but nothing moved. Buses fast and direct draw travellers away, leaving the railway to endure reduced revenue and by road deliveries reaching settlers.
