H.& N. W. R. Improvements
The H. & N. W. R. Co. opened their station and telegraph office at Burlington Beach yesterday, and will at once make the necessary arrangements for doing a large passenger business between the city and that delightful summer resort. The company have also opened a city ticket office on James St. N., where passengers for all parts of the continent can be supplied with tickets at the lowest rates.
Then another on May 3, 1879
H. & N. W. R. - Mr. Phillips, for some time past station agent on this line at Cheltenham, has been re-stationed at Burlington Beach. Mr. Dickson, of Allandale, succeeds him at Cheltenham.
