K.C.R. NORMAL TRAFFIC MAINTAINED

%

Evening Trains Cancelled

Despite rumours Of Japanese warpings issued to the Canton- Kowloon Rallways authorities that they will bomb the railway. Major R. D.. Walker, Manager of the Railway in Kowloon, told the "Dally Press" yesterday, that the normal traffe was being main- tained, with the exception of the two evening trains, the one leaving Kowloon at 4.59 and the one lear- ing Canton at 4.50 each day

These have been cancelled for the time being chiefly owing to the fact that they must carry lights which is a dangerous thing not only owing to the presence of Japanese air raiders, but also, so far as the evening train from Kow- doon to Canton is concerned, be- cause of the frequent black outs in Canton at the present timę owing to air raids.

:

On Thursday three passenger trains arrived in Hong Kong. from Canton carrying a total of 2.700 passengers of whom 89 were first

class and 267 second class. As the capacity of these trains was 3,600 they were, by no means crammed. ng stated in some quarters. said
