REPORT OF THE VICTORIAN RAILWAYS COMMISSIONERS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH JUNE, 1955.

VICTORIAN RAILWAYS,

CommisRioners' Office, Spencer-street, Melbourne.

11th November, 1955. To the Honorable the illinister of Transport.

SIR, In conformity with the provisions of Section 99 of the Railways Act 1928 (No.

3759) we have the honour to submit our Report for the year ended 30th June, 1955. This was a notable year in that on 12th September, 1954, the Victorian Railwayl:l

completed lOO years of service to Victoria-service which has contributed materially to the development and prosperity of the State.

As mentioned on page 12 of this Report, the anniversary was celebrated by a dinner attended by His Excellency the Governor of Victoria and Lady [rooks and a representative gathering of citizens. Displays of working models in the Lower Town Hall, Melbourne, and old and new units of railway rolling stock at Spencer-street Station, also attracted great interest.

In this centenary year many railway records were broken. The total goods and live stock ton-miles were 11 per cent. more than in the record year of 1951-52 ; the quantities of superphosphate and fuel, comprising briquettes, coal and coke, were 2 and 8 per cent. greater, respectively, than in the previous record year; and, although a large volume of interstate high grade traffic was loRt and substantial reductions had to be made, as from 6th December, 19~4, in interstate freight rates as a result of the Privy Council decision in the Hughes and Vale case (referred to in the section "Competition"), the revenue was the highest ever earned.

Further improvements in operating efficiency were achieved, mainly as a result of the new rolling stock, particularly diesel-electric locomotives, which was placed in service. Compared ¥rith 1953-54 (when substantial betterments in efficiency were secured), the average contents load per train mile rose by 6 per cent. ; the average miles per truck per day by 8 per cent.; and the average ton-miles per truck per day by 12 per cent.

The record revenue (£39,977,320) which was achieved despite the adverse factors referred to above, reflects the vigorous efforts made to conserve traffic to the rail and to secure new business by maintaining close contact with businessmen, graziers, and others and keeping them fully informed of the increased railway capacity and the higher standard of service.

Goods and live~>tock ton mileage totalled 1,426,414,690, 156,642,962 ton-miles (12 per cent.) more than in 1953-54.

The quantity of wheat hauled-1,683,897 tons-was abnormal due to the decline in the export of wheat and flour in 1953--54, which resulted in a large quantity of wheat remaining on hand in country elevators at the commencement of the financial year under review. These elevators had to be cleared prior to the commencement of deliveries

of the new season's harvest and, during the peak of the movement, i.e., from 1st September to 30th November, an average of approximately

·1! million bushels (1,590 trucks) of wheat were conveyed per week from country stations to the seaboard and mills. During the subsequent harvesting period, a weekly average of approximately 2 million bushels (2,600 trucks) was moved for nine consecutive weeks to ensure that space was available in country elevators for the new season's wheat.

The Grain Elevators Board and other interested bodies all expressed commendation of the efficient manner in which the wheat was moved.

In conjunction with forwarding agents, who provide a door-to-door service, the carriage of general goods in truckloads was continued with marked success, and the system now operates between Melbourne and all the capital cities in Australia. This, together with the use of 250 containers (including 50 insulated units introduced for perishable commodities) between Melbourne and Sydney, and the application of special rates for various classes of goods offering in large quantities, enabled us to secure a considerable portion of the interstate goods traffic between the capital cities.

The tonnage of coal, coke and briquettes carried was 2,597,862 tons, 193,656 tons more than in the previous record year of 1953-54.

The tonnage of superphosphate carried, viz., 569,235 tons, was 10,521 tons more than the record set in 1953-54. Due to belated ordering by users, the quantity despatched in the first half of the financial year, viz., 151,000 tons, again left a large volume to be handled between January and June. During the latter period, the tonnage carried was 418,000 tons, which approximated the maximum that can be handled by rail when a big harvest has to be dealt with in conjunction with other heavy demands. In co-operation with the superphosphate companies and other interested bodies, we will continue our endeavours to induce users, in their own interests, to take more of their requirements between July and December, when ample rail capacity is normally available. ·

Live stock traffic was 57 4,519 tons, or 4,365 tons less than in the preeeding year. The average number of head carried daily was 21,833.

Despite the rapidly-growing number of private motor cars registered in this State, and the abnormal travel whieh oceurred during the period of the Royal Tour in Vietoria in 1953-54, country passenger journeys in 1954-55 totalling 8,552,827, were 105,791 more than in the previous year, proving the popularity of the faster and more attractive country and interstate passenger services being provided.

The total number of suburban journeys was 160,650,993-2,992,630 more than in 1953-54. The length of the average suburban journey decreased slightly, from 8·39 miles to 8 · 34 miles.

Compared with 1953-54, working expenses increased by £1,093,713 to £37,265,773. The gross increase was £2,059,000, of which £1,214,000 represented higher costs outside our control, such as increased wages under awards, including pay-roll tax (£787,000), increased cost of stores and materials (£300,000) and long service leave and superannuation payments (£127,000). Increased provision for overtaking arrears of maintenance accounted for £250,000, while the handling of the additional traffic involved increased operating expenditure amounting to approximately £550,000. These increases were, however, offset by operating savings through greater operating efficiency, including the use of modern locomotives (£615,000) and by the reduced contribution to the Railway Renewals and Replacements Fund (£350,000), leaving a net increase of £1,093,713.

Pat~senger revenue amounted to £9,878,6H5, of which £5,~)33,680 was earned in the ~mburban area.

Goods and live t->tock traffic produced a revenue of £24,416,886. Of the total goods tonnage carried, 74 per cent., compri~-ing primary produce and other low-rated bulk gocdK, produced 57 per cent. of the total goods r~venue. The average rate per ton-mile at which these cmnmodities were carried varied from 1·97d. fur superphm.phate, 2 · 96d. for wheat, 3 · 06d. for other agricultural products and 2 · 7ld. for flour and other mill products, the average rate being 3·22d. per ton mile.

While the rates referred to are those for the average distance the goods were carried, much lower rates are charged in the case of the longer hauls, as the freight per ton-mile decreases on a tapering scale with increasing distance. For example, for 300 miles, the rate for fertilizers is 1· 6d. per ton-mile ; for flour, bran, &c., 1· 93d. per ton-mile ; and for wheat, 2 · 42d. per ton-mile -ratei-l which, particularly on branch lines, involve a heavy loss and represent a substantial subsidy by the railways to the primary producer.

The balance of the total goods tonnage, viz., 26 per cent., produced 43 per cent. of the revenue, the average rate for all the commodities concerned being 6 · 53d. per ton-mile for the average haul. These are the classes of traffic which are most vulnerable to road competition.

The practice of quoting low rates for primary produee and other bulk com.moditie~; has prevailed from the earliest railway years in this and other countries, and has unquestionably been an important factor in the development of primary production. The more valuable traffic has always been charged higher freight rate~ wlJieh in many

cases return a substantial profit. Under present day conditions, however, it is necessary in order to conserve high grade traffic to the rail, particularly in the case of inter-capital traffic, to offer rates which, while not meeting all conts in everycase, cover the out-of-pocket costs and make some contribution to the general overhead.

. Substantial reductions are also granted to secondary industries in the country for the carriage of raw· materials on the " down " journey and manufactured goods on the "up" journey. The rates charged are, in some cases, nearly 70 per cent. below the ordinary rates and the assistance given in this direction-·at the expense of the railways-is conservatively estimated at £750,000 per annum.

The increase of £1,093,713 in working expenses compared with the previous year occurred under the following headings :-

The amoun~ creilited by the Treasury to limit the cost of interest and other debt charges to 1 per cent. '4f the railway loan liability was £2,148,060.

Contributions to the Railway Renewals and Replacements Fund totalled £321,795, comprising t}~e statutory minimum payment of £200,000 and £121,795 for sundry rail and road motor depreciation, miscellaneous sales, &c. The full amount of depreciation, calculated on the Nixon Committee basis of the original cost, was £1,833,156, which means there was an under-provision of funds for the year on this account of approximately £1! millions. In this connexion, it should be borne in mind that, in the last five years, substantial sums have been 'made available by the Treasury, free of interest, for overtaking arrears of renewals and replacements. The amounts EO provided since 1949-50 were a~; lows :-

(excluding stores and- material8) after writing off the amount transferred to the State's General Account at lst July, 1937, under the provisiom; of Act No. 4429, and after providing for depreciation and replacements since the latter date, was £91,029,079, an increase of £7,273,802 for the year. This increase represents the excess of replacement and new capital expenditure over the provision for depreciation, sales repayments, &e.

Railway Centenary. In September, 1D54, the Victorian Railways celebrated lOO years of railway

operation. The first train in Australia ran from Flinders-street to Sandridge (Port :Yielbournc) on 12th September, 1854.

This first line was constructed and operated by a private company. The Victorian Govetnment Haihvays cam.e into being in March, 1856, when the Legislative Council authorized the purchase of the :Melbourne, lVIt. Alexander, and Murray River Co., and the CommisBioncr of Public Works and the Surveyor-General were appointed Trustees of the raihvays.

In the following year, the control of the railways was transferred to the Board of Land and Works, w.hich proceeded with the construction of lines throughout the State. A number of lines were also constructed and operated by private companies, but they were ultimately taken over by the Government.

By 1884, 1,600 miles of railway were in operation in Victoria and, in that year, administration of the railways was vested in a corporate body of three Commissioners. This form of management has been maintained, except for the period from 1896 to 1903, when control was exercised by one Commissioner.

A section of the Model Railway Exhibition.

By 1901, the total route mileage was ::3,238. The mileage at the close of the year ended 30th June, 1955, was 4,451 and, except in mountainous country, there are now very fe\V parts of the State which arc further than eight miles from a railway.

The centenary was fittingly celebrated at a dinner on 13th September, 1954, at which were pre:-;ent His Excellency the Governor of Victoria and Lady Brooks, the Premier of Yietoria, State }finistcrs, and representatives of the judiciary, the services, commere(~ and industry. Hepresentatives of the railway staff were also present.

Between 11th and 25th September, 1954, a highly successful exhibition was staged in the Lower Town Hall, Melbourne, featuring a working model of a railway, covering l ,4UO square feet, running through a ~-;eenic setting typical of Victorian country, complete with township and railway ~tation. The track had eolour-light signalling and a level .c;rossing equipfled with flashing-light signals. Over this railway ran fourteen scale-model

Page 13: VICTORIAN RAILWAYS - Parliament of · PDF fileVICTORIAN RAILWAYS REPORT ... the haulage of trains by electric traction was eommenccd be~ween Melbourne and Warmgul ... fnwanl shed

13

trains, including the first to run to Sandridge, the latest in service--" The Overland" with its modern sleeping and sitting accommodation, and others representative of different periods in railway history. The exhibition attracted a total attendance of 71,330.

In addition, a display of old and modern rolling stock and railway equipment was held at Spencer-street station between 11th September and 2nd October, 1954. This, also, was very popular, attracting 57,740 visitors.

A special postage stamp was issued by the Postmaster-General's Department to commemorate the centenary.

Non-Paying Branch Lines. The Joint Transport Research Committee (comprising the Co-ordinator of Transport

(Chairman) and representatives of the Transport Regulation Board and this Department) continued its investigations into the operation of certain non-paying branch lineR with a view to determining whether the traffic in the areas served could be handled more economically and more efficiently by road transport.

Following the completion of inquiries into the operation of the following lines, approval was given to their being closed, viz.

Colac-Alvie ;

Weeaproinah-Crowes ;

Beech worth-Yackandandah.

Fares and Freights. No increases were made in fares and freights during the year under revie'l\'.

Competition. The outstanding development during the year in regard to road competition was

the decision of the Privy Council upholding an appeal by the Hughes and Vale road haulage company, which contended that the licensing provisions of the New South Wales State Transport (Co-ordination) Act were invalid insofar as interstate transport waH concerned, as they infringed Section 92 of the Commonwealth Constitution which guaranteed freedom of trade, commerce and intercourse among the States.

As similar legislation existed in most of the other States, the Privy Council judgment had prompt repercussions, and interstate rail traffic between Victoria and the adjoining States-both passenger and goods-immediately became vulnerable to intense competition from road services. This applied not only to traffic between the capital cities, but also between Melbourne and border towns in New South Wales and South Australia, many of which, because of their geographical location, normally trade with Victoria.

Certain States subsequently passed amending legislation designed to allow freedom of road movement interstate upon payment of a small charge for the use of the public highways calculated on the same basis as that imposed on intrastate hauliers. This legislation, however, was immediately challenged by road transport interests, and the High Court of Australia for various reasons held that this also was invalid.

While the High Court, in its judgment, confirmed that the States have the right to make some charge for the use of their roads by interstate carriers, it took the view that the legislation passed subsequent to the Privy Council decision operated in such a manner as to interfere with freedom of interstate trade and was, therefore, invalid.

Interstate road transport is at present entirely unc;ontrolled, and its extensive operations are seriously affecting railway-and State--revenue. These road services, which enjoy all the flexibility of no fixed schedules or rates, and no obligations as a " conuuon carrier ", are, in most cases, paralleling and duplicating railway services and conveying traffic which can quite efficiently be handled by rail.

The legiRlation pa .. sed in 1953 whi!~h. ·£nte1· alia, withdruw tlw right of primary producers to carry goods of other primary producers in the same locality, was only partially effective dtUing the year, as a number of licences containing the right were current until the end of January, H)55. Nevertheless, the rail movement of wool­which was the cormnoclity mostly affected by the ehange--reaehed record proportions during the 1954 season.

Commercial Activities. The. high level of intrastate business-both goods and passenger- refleetH the

economie prosperity of the State and the resultR of the effortR by otU commercial staff to attract business to the rail.

Until November, a similar satisfactory position existed in respect of interstate goods business but, following the decision of the Privy Council in the Hughes and Vale case, competitive rates were introduced for eontainers and goods handled in truckloads by forwarding agents in order to meet the lower charges offered by the greatly increased number of road operators. This course arrested the loss of business to the road and enabled considerable traffic to be regained. In addition, large blocks of new traffic were obtained by the introduction of special rates under freight agreen1,ent with the consignors.

The lifting of restrictions on interstate road transport also led to intense competition for traffic at border towns in other States, such as Albury, Mt. Gambier, Wahgunyah and Balranald, and here, also, it was necessary to introduce competitive rates for the higher classes of traffic.

With a view to improving the packaging of goods, our Claims Prevention Officers continued to maintain close contact with consignors. This is a service that not only engenders good-will but also effects an appreciable reduction in claims for damage ..

Passenger Train Services.

Country.

With the inauguration of electric traction between Melbourne and Warragul on 22nd July, 1954, improved passenger services were introduced on the Gippsland line, including the running of an additional train between Melbourne and Warragul on Mondays to Fridays inclusive primarily for school children who previously travelled by road. On 11th January, 1955, an additional return trip was also scheduled to Traralgon on Mondays to Fridays inclusive.

Many special trains were run for excursions, sports n:leetings, &c. The popularity of the Sunday excursion trains was well maintained and those to Seymour and Traralgon were extended to Shepparton and Sale respectively.

Suburban.

The weekly car mileage in June, 1955, compared with June, 1954, wasas follows:-

Mondays to Fridays. Satmdays. Sundays.

June, 1955 750,258 133,240 75,125 June, 1954 743,943 131,894 75,478

Increase ( +) or decrease (-) + 6,315 + 1,346 - 353

The increases were due to the improvements effected in suburban serviCes.

Train Mileage. The total train mileage (including assistant, light, and departmental fuel mileage)

was 406,464 more than in 1953-54. The increase was due mainly to the movement of an exceptional volume of wheat in the first half of the financial year.

A comparison of the traffic train mileage in the past three years is shown hereunder :-

The Wheat Harvest. In the 1954-55 season, the area sown with wheat was 2,390,173 acres and

production was 48,484,543 bushels ; 869 acres more and 5,213,068 bushels less respectively, than in the previous season.

The average yield per acre was 20·28 bushels compared with 22·47 bushels in the preceding year.

'Vheat railed during the year totalled 46,042,338 bushels, exceeding by 11,111,940 bushels the quantity carried in 1953-54. This large volume comprised most of the 1954-55 season's harvest and approximately 12,000,000 bushels of the previous harvest, which, as prev-iously explained, had to be moved from the country storages prior to the harvesting of the new season's wheat.

Comparative details of wheat produced and railed during the past five years are as follows

These units (26) continued to give highly satisfactory service. They regularly run about 60 per cent. of the country passenger train mileage and about 25 per cent. of the goods mileage. An important aspect of their outstandingly economical operation is the high degree of availability which results in four to five times greater mileage than that obtainable from steam locomotives.

Suburban Electric 'Trains.

Progress is being made with the construction of the 30 new trains ordered for the suburban services. Two of the 90 motor coaches being built in England will be delivered complete, and the remainder in a "knocked down" condition for assembly at Newport Workshops. Construction of the 120 trailer coaches is being carried out by local contractors.

An accelerated programme of overhaul was instituted for the sliding-door suburban stock and, in conjunction with this, improvements for the comfort and convenience of passengers are being incorporated, such as the installation of modern ventilators, ball-bearing type door rollers, rubberised hair upholstery for seats, and straphangers.

Orders were placed for 328 single-pan pantographs to replace the double-pan type on existing suburban motor coaches.

The substitution of cast-steel motor coach bogies for units of the pressed-steel type was continued. During the year, 84 bogies of the former type were installed, making a total of 570 bogies replaced at the close of the year.

Cleanliness of suburban cars, which has progressively improved since the installation of a car-washing machine at Jolimont in 1953, will be further improved on completion of the new mechanical washing plant which is designed to handle 56 cars daily.

Country Passenger Cars.

The construction of air-conditioned, steel, passenger cars was resumed at Newport Workshops and, in addition, two air-conditioned cars have been converted to buffet-passenger cars. The latter have seats for thirty-four passengers at which refreshments are served and a buffet containing sixteen additional seats for serving passengers from other carriages.

Truck Maintenance.

Completion of new covered areas at the workshops at North Melbourne, Ballarat and Bendigo enabled truck overhaul and repair work to be increased. In addition, improvements to trucks, such as the fitting of improved door catches and internal lashing rings for the better stowage of consignments, have been accelerated.

The flooring of 70 sheep trucks was replaced by a new design to facilitate cleaning and improve foothold for stock. The conversion of the balance of these trucks is continuing.

Tarpaulin Maintenance.

Centres for the repair of tarpaulins were established at Ballarat, Bendigo and Geelong to handle approximately 5,000 repairs per annum. This work was previously carried out at Newport and, in addition to the more expeditious return of damaged tarpaulins into service, the scheme has resulted in a considerable reduction in handling and transport charges.

Modernization of Workshop Equipment.

To aid production and enable the available manpower to be utilized to the best advantage, installation of modern equipment and tools was continued.

New wheel and axle lathes were ordered for North Melbourne and Jolimont workshops to increase capacity for wheel and axle work, particularly in view of the increasing mileage being run. A roller-bearing wheel workshop, which is being equipped with modern plant for the maintenance of the increasing number of roller-bearing journals on our rolling stock, was provided at Newport .

. A considerable amount of new pl~nt, including. welding se~s and plate-working machmery, was purchased to keep pace with truck repairs, steel vehicle construction, and steel fabrication. Good progress was also made with the new mechanized iron-melting centre in the Newport Foundry and additional foundry equipment was ordered.

21

The first half of t he new brown coal-burning boiler ptant at Newport Workshops was placed in service and a conf>id<~rable portion of the eq uipnH~n t for the modernization of the machine-shop at that location was in::;talled.

A storage section for heavy steel plates, ::;erved by t\\"O 20-ton gantry cranes and rail tracks and roadx ic; nearing com.pletion at. Newport. Thi.-; area will also serve as an unloading and storage area for the new suburban train components.

Workshops in the country continued to be expanded. At Ballarat, the car-shop was extencl<~d substantially, a new wood machinc-c;hop \YaK provided, and further additions are in hand. Modern :-;hops \Vere also Prccted for brake-equipment repain; and production fitting.

At Ben<ligo Worlu;]lOpR, the copperKntith's shop wa.c; extended a.nd equipped with modern sheet-metal working machinery; new shops were provided for brake repairs and spray painting of trncks ; and extensions in eomse to the car-shop \\"ill include a new upholsterer's shop and wooc1-maehine centre.

Way and Works Branch. Although the staff position improved slig!ttl.v compared with the preceding year,

shortages of materials continued, principally rails , fasteningti and brieks.

In tmck relaying and maiutena.nec, 1:j2 miles of nul:-;, 760,000 sleeperH, and 200,000 cubic vards of ballast were used.

"

Approximately 27,000 Hleepers were produced at the departmental :·deepr.r-eutting projeet at Nowa. Kowa and 785,000 were purchased. Due to the increasing l·wm:eit.y of the more durable timberl:l, these supplies were mainly of inferior hardwood , a nrl land was acquired as u, site for the erec.tion of a preservative treatment plant.

In connexion with the dnpli('[.l.tion of the Ashbmton, Eastmu.lvern and Gippsland lines, !) miles of additional track were laicl. Private sidings were constructed at Dandenong for tlw Commonwealth Engineering Co . Ltd ., at Kyabmm for T. E. Butler and Co., and at Paisley for Standard·-Ya.cuum Rdining Co. Lt<.l.

Dogspike driving machines.

Regrading, Duplication and Electrification of the Gippsland Line.

As previously mentioned, the regular ha ulagc of tntinH by electric traction wa:-; commenced between l\'Ielbourne and Warragul on 22nd J nly, 1954, and wit h the completion of the overhead wiring between Spotswood awl the \'ewport Power Station in September, 1954, coal trains were run by eledrie traction fl·olll Warragul direct to the power station .

Duplication and relaying of the line bct,ween Da.ndenong and 1\foe " ·ere continued, and double-line running waR introduced (except. at stations) on t he se<.:tion between Officer and Tynong. The new track has been provided on t he remaining t1ections to be duplicated, except for 6 miles between Trafalgar aml ?lloe, and is being used while the original track is being relayed.

All sub-stations and tie-stations, as well as the overhead wmng on the Warragul-Y allourn section of the line, were practically completed. On the remaining section to be electrified, viz., Moe-Traralgon, all buildings for sub-stations and tie-stations were completed and the equipment is being installed.

Track work in the Morwell station yard was rearranged. Overhead bridges were constructed at McDonald and .Jane streets, and a pedestrian subway provided at Church-street.

Jl elbourne-South Y arra. Duplication of Suburban Lines.

All properties necessary for the construction of a new station at Richmond were acquired and demolition work was nearly completed. The construction of the southern retaining walls between Punt-road and Swan-street and between Dover and Swan streets was well advanced, and a contract was let for the steel work for the new bridge over Punt-road. The six tracks on the Richmond-South Y arra section were completed and tenders were invited for the construction of the new bridge over Swan-street.

Camherwellr-Ashburton. Duplication work was completed from the "up" side of Riversdale to Ashburton

and good progress was made with the new bridge over Stanhope-grove and the " flyover " at East Camberwell to carry the "down" Ashburton line over the Box Hill lines.

H eyington-Eastrnalvern. Duplication of the Heyington-Gardiner section was commenced and track laying

well advanced. A new "down" platform is in course of construction at Kooyong.

Train Crossing Facilities.

A new platform with station buildings was brought into use at Macleod on the additional track provided to facilitate train crossing and improve timekeeping.

Additional train-crossing facilities are also being provided on the Ferntree Gully and Glen Waverley lines by duplicating sections of the existing single tracks. Earthworks for the section between Mt. Waverley and Syndal were completed, and track laying is in course. The construction of the second platform at l\lt. Waverley was well advanced. Earthworks and bridge extensions were commenced for the section of the Ferntree Gully line to be duplicated between Bayswater and l;ower Ferntree Gully.

Degraves-street Subway.

The railway facilities associated with the construction of the subway were nearly completed prior to the opening of the subway on 31st August, 1955. The existing railway subway has been widened as far as the entrances to Nos. 4 and 5 platforms.

Cranes.

Delivery of fourteen 8-ton electrically-operated derrick cranes commenced, and the first was installed at Colac where it is giving satisfactory service. The second was erected at Morwell.

The first of ten 5-ton electrically-operated post cranes on order was installed at Deniliquin.

New Suburban Stations. Construction of a new station between Pascoe Vale and Glenroy was commenced

and the construction of new stations between Box Hill and Blackburn and Bentleigh and Moorabbin was also put in hand.

Turntables. Six electrically-operated, 70-ft., twin-span turntables were received during the year

and four were placed in service at Seymour, Benalla, Ballarat and Geelong. The other two are being installed at Bendigo and Maryborough. ··

Fire Protection.

Following a close survey of the fire-protection facilities at important centres throughout the State, necessary improvements are being effected, including automatic sprinkler systems at the Geelong Goods Shed and the Motor Garage, Batman-avenue. Tenders were invited for automatic alarm systems for the goods sheds at Bendigo, Echuca, Kyneton, \Vodonga, Castlemaine, Inglewood, Wangaratta and Woodend.

Pre-cut Houses.

A further 419 imported pre-cut houses were erected or are in course of erection, making a total of 1,287 since the inception of the scheme. Contracts were let for the erection of the balance (167).

Eight prefabricated houses and two private homes were purchased.

Dynon Goods Terminal.

Except for the provision of a general office and some minor works, the new goods terminal faeilities on the north side of Dynon-road have been completed. On the south side-of Dynon-road, where further facilities wiH be provided, a considerable quantity of filling was placed and considerable progress was made with the erection of the framework for a new Inward goods shed.

Provision of Additional Sidings at North Geelong.

In conjunction with the construct.ion by the Geelong Harbor Trust of new wharves at Corio, the rearrangement of railway facilities was undertaken in the area. 'I'ra.ffic to and from the wharves and private sidings will be taken under the main line and into the North Geelong Yard. \Vheat traffic to and from the terminal elevator will be conducted without passing through the yard. Portion of the cost of the work is being borne by the Geelong Harbor Trust and the Grain Elevators Board.

Level Crossings.

Flashing-light signals were erected at six level crossings, viz., Sunshine, Watsonia, Seaford, Carrum, Frankston, and Chiltern, and further installat.ions vYere in hand at Dennington and Barnawartha.

Other works included the provision of transport ramps at a number of live stock trucking yards to facilitate handling of stock to and from road vehicles. A new telephone trunk service was provided between Ballarat and Ararat as part of a scheme for better communication with Adelaide.

rrhe programme of improving staff amenities was continued. An additional area at North Melbourne Locomotive Depot was covered to give protection from the weather; new staff barracks and dining facilities are being provided at Serviceton, and locker, messing, food-heating and ablution facilities were installed at many locations.

New mechanical equipment included two power excavators, fourteen light tractors with dozer blades and rotary-hoe attachments, two heavy tractors with dozer blades, pneumatic tools for track and bridge maintenance, concrete mixers, air compressors, &c. Two "Matisa " tie-tamping machines were ordered. A weed-poisoning train was put into service to facilitate the destruction of weeds along the tracks and minimize the diversion of track forces for this purpose.

Electrical Engineering Branch. 'fhe replacement of obsolete, 25-cycle, rotary-converter sub-stations to modern,

50-cycle, mercury-arc rectifier sub-stations was continued. Two of the ten sub-stations necessary on the Caulfield-Dandenong-Frankston group of lines were placed in commission and the remainder are in course of erection.

A 22,000-volt transmission line, linking the recent.J.y ~~ leetri ficl l Gippslan!l line with the n ew 50-cycle sub-stations on the Dandenong line, was put into commission .

Under-capacity and obsolete high-volta.ge switehgear and associated protective apparatus were replaced at ~cwrnarket sub-Rt ation a,ncl similar work wa.s a lmost complet ed at J olimont sub-station.

Stores Branch. The value of stocks held a.t :30th June, 1!155. W<ts f4,446,:378, a n increasl! of

t238,630 compared with the previous year. The incre;lse wa.t> (lue mainly to t h e r eceipt from over:::;eas of a large quantity of new rails a nd sleeper plates for duplication and relaying works and to ri:::;es in the prieeH of m aterials, particularly in t he non-ferrous range.

Issues and :::;ales from :,;to<.:k after allowing for ad. vanee is:::;ues against capital works, totalled £16,792,824, a decrease of £326,401 . The stoc:k t urnover was 3 · 64 compared 'vith 3 ·76 in 1953- 54.

Continued improvement wa:s shown in the rc:sultt> of the Hcclamation Depot at Spotswood, the value of material reclaimed for rai lway nsc n1Hl sale (£471 ,862) being £85,513 more than in 1953- 54.

Supplies of wooden :-;fcepers reached the highest l l~ vel for ma ny y ean;, HI2,246 being received.

26

Coal. The quantity of coal consumed during the year was 266,831 tons. This comprised

265,064 tons of large coal and 1,767 tons of small coal, the total cost being £2,017,495. The average costs were £7 lls. 5d. and £5 8s. 3d. per ton respectively, compared with £7 17s. 8d. and £5 8s. 10d. per ton in the previous year.

Coal received during the year was as follows :-

From New South Wales-}:~rom :;Hate f'rom Other Coal 1\line. Victorian Total.

Sources. Newcastle. Washed Lithgow.

Tons. Tons. Tons. Tons. Tons.

Large 52,077 2,079 10,743 186,387 251,286 Small 51,830* 51,830* Brown Coal .. 5,991

Total 10,743 186,387 309.107

• Of this quantit~·, 50,la~ tons were sold to the State Elcctririty Commission.

Of the 197,130 tom; of coal received from Xew South Wales, 123,093 tons were seaborne and the remainder railed from Lithgow and Newcastle.

This Department continued to carry out the work associated with the purchasing and accounting of Callide coal from Queensland for the State Electricity Commission.

Fuel Oil. Consumption of furnace oil was 53,361 tons, equal to 12,748,587 gallons, at a total

cost of £462,806. This represents an increase of 5,784 tons co·mpared with 1953-54.

The average price of furnace oil during the year was £8 13s. 6d. per ton compared with £9 13s. 1d. in the previous year.

Diesel Fuel. The quantity of diesel fuel oil consumed in diesel-electric locomotives was 17,46H

tons (4,576,818 gallons) at a cost of £330,358.

Storage. During the year, the Commonwealth Aircraft Storehouse at Spotswood was taken

over from the Division of Aircraft Production and its use has relieved the congestion previously experienced in the storehouse at Spotswood.

The store at Somerville-road, Brooklyn, hired for the storage of pre-cut house components, is being retained for the storage of electric train equipment and components for 'the new suburban electric trains on order.

Refreshment Services Branch. The revenue from the activites of the branch continued its upward trend with a

total of £1,620,5ll~an increase of £31,947 compared with 1953-54. Approximately half of this increase was obtained from the kiosks on metropolitan :;;tations.

Because of insufficient patronage, the Serviceton refreshment rooms were closed on 28th March, 1955, and are to be used as a hostel for railway staff.

The Chalet, lVIount Buffalo, maintained its popularity as a tourist resort, the average number of guests in residence daily being 147. The year's operations showed a profit of £1,761.

Following trials at ]'linders-street vvith an automatic drink-vending machine, further machines are being installed.

27

Staff. Despite an intensive advertising campaign throughout the year, we were unable to

secure anything like the number of additional men required, particularly in the operating and metal trades grades. We had, accordingly, to resort again to the recruitment of staff overseas and, within the next six months, this is expected to give a considerable measure of relief from the acute staff shortage.

During the year under review, 198 apprentices were appointed in 22 trade grades.

At the close of the year, the staff totalled 30,235 (including casual labour equivalent to 515 men working full time}, compared with 30,113 in the preceding year.

Industrial Tribunals. The basic wage of 39s. 2d. per day, which was fixed by the Arbitration Court in

October, 1953, without provision for cost-of-living adjustment was, by direction of the Government, varied in accordance with fluctuations as disclosed by the Commonwealth Statistician's " C" Series Price Index figures, and resulted in the payment of basic rates as follows :-

s. d. From 1st July, 1954 .. 39 6 From 1st August, 1954 39 4 From 7th November, 1954 39 2 From 8th May, 1955 39 6

The increased cost involved iH estimated at £71,000 for the year under Ie"\'lew.

In November, 1954, the Commonwealth Court of Conciliation and Arbitration granted substantial increases in marginal rates in the Metal Trades Award. Subsequent Awards made by other wage-fixing bodies also granted substantial increases, resulting in a total increased cost for the year of approximately £540,000. Other Awards, relating mainly to working conditions, cost an additional £99,000.

The average annual payment in 1954-55 to all officers and employees, including juniors and females, was £914, by comparison with £856 for the previous year.

Staff Welfare. The appointment of a Welfare Officer is giving very satisfactory results and, in

view of the large number of New Australians in the service, one of their number was appointed to undertake the duties of Welfare Officer to New Australian employees. He visits them at their homes and in hospitals, and advises and assists them as to their pay arrangements, sick-leave credits, social service benefits, 'Workers' Compensation rights, &c.

Railways Safety Council. Considerable success has been achieved . by the Council and safety personnel in

eliminating accidents by removing accident hazards and educating the staff in safe practices. The question of extending the safety organization is receiving attention.

Public Relations. Press and magazine advertising, departmentally-produced booklets and posters were

the principal media which the Public Relations Division adopted to foster goodwill between the Department and its customerR. The division was also responsible for the production of tourist literature for distribution through the Victorian Government Tourist Bureau, both in Victoria and other States.

By the regular issue to the country and metropolitan press of bulletins containing items of railway interest, and by other means, current railway affairs and improvements are kept before the public. Railwaymen were kept fully informed of railway topics of interest through the monthly "News Letter".

Victorian Government Tourist Bureau. The bureau and its branches again proved their popularity as centres for travel

bookings and the dissemination of information to holiday makers. A total of £1,465,617 was earned, an increase of £75,453 compared with the

preceding year. Of this total, £864,408 was for rail travel and £601,209 for other activities, such as bookings for air and road services, hotels, &c.

Experienced staff were seconded from the bureau to undertake the task of arranging accommodation, especially in private homes, for the large number of visitors expected for the Olympic Games.

Victorian Nationaf Resources Tours. Two highly-successful National Resources Train tours were organized to the Snowy

Mountains Hydro-Electric Authority's project in New South Wales. Each tour was fully booked with 58 representatives from varied city and country interests.

Suggestions. 0£ the 646 suggestions, covering a wide range of railway activities, received during

the year, 81 were adopted.

First-Aid Work. The staff maintained a gratifying interest in first-aid work, 656 employees passing

examinations during the year. More than 7,350 employees are now qualified in first-aid. Of these, 542 hold the

8th Year Gold Life Membership Medal, and 904 the 5th Year Silver Efficiency Medal. Thirty-six of the 40 active ambulance teams and 170 individuals entered for the

Annual District Competitions. The Australian Railways Ambulance Competition was held in South Australia in

November, 1954, and Queensland and Western Australia tied for first place. The Individual Event was won for the second year in succession by an employee of this Department.

Victorian Railways Institute. During the year, enrolments totalled 2,679 and losses through resignations,

retirements, &c., were 2,192. Mter allowing for 1,040 unfinancial members who were written ofl', the total membership was 16,344, a decrease of 553 compared v.rith the previous year.

Classes in railway subjects, as well as in typewriting, shorthand and accountancy, were well attended and enrolments totalled 2,987. The general examination results were very satisfactory.

During the year, 7,720 books, costing £2,949, were added to the Library. A new brick building at the Traralgon centre was completed. Land was purchased

at Hamilton, and plans were prepared for new buildings at Nyora and Serviceton, where Institute centres are to be established. A commencement was made with improYements and extensions to existing buildings at the Dimboola and Shepparton centres.

State Coal Mine. The quantity of coal raised during the year was 126,081 tons. After providing

for miners' household coal, mine consumption, allowances, and waste the output available for sale was 107,893 tons, the •vhole of which, with the exception of 2,263 tons sold to the public, was supplied to thp, railways. Of this quantity, 50,132 tons of small coal were so]d to the State Electricity Commission.

Mter the payment of working expenses, loan redemption and interest charges, and allowing £23,762 for depreciation, the operation of the mine resulted in a loss of £78,311.

One day's production was iost due to a stop-work meeting. The amount paid in wages was £641,892, the net average contract earnings being

81/7 ·12 per miner per shift.

Visits Abroad. On 15th September, 1954, Mr. H. L. Kennedy, Assistant Superintendent of

Refreshment Services, and 1\'h. G. F. Woolley, Assistant Signal and Telegraph Engineer, left for North America and Europe to investigate modern trends in railway catering and railway signalling matters. .Much valuaqle information was obtained by these officers, who returned on 14th April, 1955.

In view of the acute staff shortage, .Mr. R. M. \:Vright, A.ssistant to the Staff Board, left on 8th December, 1954, to recruit staff in Great Britain and the Continent. On 2nd June, 1955, :Mr. R. A. Smith, also of the Secretary's Branch, left to assist Mr. Wright, \vhose activities had been extended over a wide area.

Acknowledgment of Services of the Staff. The co-operation of the staff was an important factor in enabling new records to

be established and in improving railway efficiency, and we wish to record our sincere appreciation of their valuable assistance throughout the year.

Heads of Branches. At the close of the year, the Heads of Branches were:-

Secretary Chief Mechanical Engineer Chief Civil Engineer Chief Traffic Manager Chief Electrical Engineer Comptroller of Accounts Chief Commercial Manager Comptroller of Stores Superintendent of Refreshment Services
