Lancefield Mercury† Train arrangements for the new Lancefield Township platform.† The deputation which waited on the Railway Commissioners to have trains arriving at and departing from the new platform near the Macedonia Hotel have had their wishes granted as the arrangements from the 1st June, the 6-50am train will depart from the new platform at 6-40am and the 5-10pm will depart from the new platform at 5-00pm.† Passengers will be set down at the new platform by all trains except the last train at night where they will alight at the old platform.† It is probable that this arrangement will be remedied in a few days as a lamp will be placed on the new platform and all trains will pick up and set down there.† Travellers taking their seats at the new station will therefore be required to be on the platform ten minutes early for all trains and must obtain their tickets from the old platform where they arrive there
