The Railway Question at Parkes Meeting
At Parkes a railway meeting urged interdistrict links with Forbes and Peak Hill. Harry Bowditch backed a Brockinbiogal to Forbes line, noting wider touch to Cootamundra and Gundagai. The Express supports the aim but says Peak Hill favors Narromine to Peak Hill, arguing it is cheaper and Parliament likely to approve it. Parkes could delay Peak Hill’s needed line, so supporters urge prioritizing Narromine route.
