at point the City Hail. where a central station

AS all trains would necessarily stop at the central
station 1t is held that the crossing b, made with
perfect safety. The cost, exclusive IL the central
tion, Is estimated at ~ 100000 Part OF
might be through subways in the streets rooted with
heavy iron pavemeuts.
