In the latter event, the examination of baggage takes place on the pier at Greenock. The examination is conducted with celerity, only one or two .selected packages being opened for Customs Inspection.

Representatives of the railroad lines are in attendance on the steamers' arrival and will furnish all necessary information as to train service, fares, etc.
