Railway Educational Facilities.

With the provision of improved terminal accommodation, the Great Western Railway, England, is providing special educational facilities for its staff on the subject of scientific goods traffic movement. As in other branches of railway activity, the “human element” plays an all-important part in freight traffic handling. Backed up by modern machinery, keen goods station staffs can do much to quicken and improve goods traffic movement, to the mutual benefit of the railway undertaking, its employees, and the great public they serve.
