Railways Face £4.5 Million Loss as Turnover and Production Rise
The Railway Commissioner records a £4,500,000 annual loss including £6,500,000 interest on capital and £1,300,000 exchange costs. Earnings reach £15,000,000 against £12,500,000 expenses, with goods revenue up £4,000,000 driven by wool and grain. The remedy: raise turnover and boost production by mobilising idle lands near the rails to provide work and wealth, ensuring railways become a paying asset through big statesmanship.
