RAILWAY CONNECTIONS
Eastbound.
London.—Passengers by all steamers land at Plymouth by steam tender, and after a cursory examination of their baggage are carried to London by special train of the Great Western Railway (provided there are not less than twenty-flve first class passengers).

The Hamburg America Line’s special train, consisting of vestibuled compartment corridor cars, fitted with lavatories and toilets, conveys passengers from Cherbourg to Paris in about 6U hours.
