Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations Upon the Working of "the Regulation of Railways Act, 1873," and of the Court of the Railway Commissioners The term for which the Railway Commissioners were appointed will expire at the end of the Parlia mentary Session of 1879, and as their Court has now been in operation for rather more than four years, the present is a convenient time for some examination into its working, with a view to a con sideration of the question whether or not it is desirable that it should be continued, and if so under what conditions. The Commissioners, moreover, have challenged inquiry by not only calling attention in their fourth Annual Report to the approaching expiration of their term of office, but also suggesting (as they have done in previous reports) that they should have given to them powers even more extensive than those they already possess.
