Of war material between England and
France is responsible for a railway ferry
across the English Channel. For some
time low built ferryboats have been run
ming between one of the channel ports
and the French coast with trucks taken
direct from English railways. On the other
side of the channel the cars have been
transferred from the boats TO the French
lines and. so to their destination. The
service is working under government Con-
troll and is proving of the greatest value.
The difficulty Of transferring the trains to
the decks of the ferryboats at all stages of
the tides has been overcome. this trouble
having held up number of the
previous scnemes and being answerable fo1
the withdrawal OF some of them.
