Attitude of Govt Mone on NSW Railways Dock Proposal
The Guyra and District Chamber of Commerce urges NSW Railways to build a dock at the Guyra goods yard to load and unload vehicles and machinery.

The note frames the dock as vital to modern transport and asks authorities to view patrons' needs and ease restrictions on other freight.
