Baggage was another source of
worry to me. They do not adopt the
checking system. such as we have,
but with simply your name and ad-
dress on it, it is hustled into the van
baggage car. Upon arriving at your
destination, the first thing the pass
| engers do is to make a scramble for
the van and claim their baggage.
Whatever YOU point out to the cab
man you hire as yours, without any
preliminaries whatever, he takes it
and no one at the station questions
his right. Yet strange to say few
things are reported missing.
The station platforms are safer
than ours. All are elevated, making
impossible for persons to walk cross
the track, thus accidents are avoided.

Taking first-class passage on the
