FIRST SCHEDULE.

BY-LAWS, RULES, AND REGULATIONS FOR REGULAT-

ING THE TRAVELLING UPON AND USING OF THE
NEW ZEALAND RAILWAYS.

Passenger Traffic.

1. In the interpretation of these Regulations, the
   term "General Manager" shall mean the person
   who shall be General Manager of the railway, in
   accordance with the provisions of "The Railways
   Regulation and Inspection Act, 1873." The word
   "railway" shall mean and include each of the lines
   of railway described in the Second Schedule hereto.

2. No person will be admitted to the booking office
   at any station whilst the door is closed for making
   up and despatching any train; and no passenger will
   be allowed to take his or her seat in or upon any
   carriage used on the railway, or to travel therein
   upon the railway, without first having paid his or her
   fare, and obtained a ticket.

3. Any person wilfully altering or defacing his
   ticket, so as to render the date, number, or any
   material portion thereof, illegible, shall be liable to a
   penalty not exceeding two pounds, and shall, in
   addition, be liable to pay the fare from the station
   whence the train originally started.

4. Tickets will be issued conditionally—that is to
   say, in case there shall be room in the train for all
   the passengers to whom tickets shall have been
   issued. If there shall not be room for all such pas-
   sengers, the holders of periodical tickets shall have
   priority over holders of return and single tickets,
   and the fare will be returned, on application to the
   Station Clerk, to the holders of such return and
   single tickets as shall be unable to obtain seats.

5. If any person travel or attempt to travel in any
   carriage on the railway without having previously
   paid his fare, and with intent to evade payment
   thereof; or if any person, having paid his fare for a
   certain distance, knowingly and wilfully proceed in
   any such carriage beyond such distance without pre-
   viously paying the additional fare for the additional
   distance, and with intent to evade payment thereof;
   or if any person knowingly and wilfully refuse or
   neglect, on arriving at the point to which he has paid
   his fare, to quit such carriage,—every such person
   shall for every such offence be liable to a penalty not
   exceeding forty shillings.

6. If any person be discovered either in or after
   committing or attempting to commit such offence as
   in the preceding clause mentioned, all officers and
   servants and other persons on behalf of the General
   Manager, and all constables, gaolers, and peace
   officers, may lawfully apprehend and detain such
   person until he can be conveniently taken before
   some Justice, or until he be otherwise discharged by
   due course of law.

7. No return or periodical ticket will be available
   for special trains.

8. Every passenger, on arriving at the station for
   which he or she may have taken a ticket, or to or
   from which he or she may hold a periodical ticket,
   shall quit the station and premises of the railway;
   and no person shall be allowed to loiter about the
   stations, wharf, or premises, or any part thereof; and
   if any passenger or other person shall refuse to quit
   the station, wharf, or premises aforesaid, on being
   requested so to do by any Station Clerk or any
   servant attached to the railway or wharf, such pas-
   senger or person may be expelled by such Station
   Clerk or other servant as aforesaid from the rail-
   way premises.

9. No gunpowder or other explosive or dangerous
   material shall be carried by any passenger train.

10. Each passenger, on paying his fare, will be fur-
    nished with a ticket, which he is to show whenever
    required by any Station Clerk or authorized Porter,
    or by the Guard in charge of the train; and if it be
    a return ticket, he must allow it to be marked when
    required; and every ticket (whether single, return,
    or periodical) must be delivered up on the demand
    of any porter or servant authorized to collect tickets.
    Single tickets not used on the day of issue, or a
    return ticket not used within the prescribed time,
    shall be deemed to be cancelled. Any person offend-
    ing against the provisions of this regulation shall be
    liable to a penalty not exceeding five pounds.

11. Tickets are not transferable; and any person
    using or attempting to use a transferred ticket, or a
    ticket the time for the proper use of which has
    expired, shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding
    five pounds.

12. Any person knowingly, and with intent to
    defraud, travelling upon the railway in a carriage of a
    superior class to that for which is provided with a
    ticket, or altering a return or other ticket, shall be
    liable to a penalty not exceeding ten pounds.

13. Tickets, whether single or return, shall be used
    by passengers only to convey them to the station
    named thereon, or to a station short of that destination.
    In no case, however, shall any "cheap excursion"
    ticket be used for any other station than that for
    which such ticket is issued. Any person using or
    attempting to use a ticket in violation of the provi-
    sions of this section, shall be liable to a penalty not
    exceeding two pounds.

14. No person will be allowed to break his journey
    by stopping at any intermediate station, and thereafter
    proceeding by a subsequent train with the same
    ticket, under a penalty not exceeding two pounds.

15. Any person, not duly authorized by the General
    Manager, who shall sell or offer for sale any free pass
    ticket or portion of a return ticket, shall be liable to
    a penalty not exceeding two pounds.

16. No male passenger shall be allowed to enter
    any waiting-room or carriage set apart for the accom-
    modation of females; and any person remaining in
    any such room or carriage after being warned to
    leave the same, shall be liable to a penalty not ex-
    ceeding two pounds.

17. Any person entering a carriage or compart-
    ment of a carriage containing the full number of
    persons which it is constructed to convey, except with
    the consent of the persons in such carriage or com-
    partment, and refusing to go out when requested by
    the Guard or other officer of the railway to do so,
    shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding two
    pounds.

18. Any person, not being a railway servant, who
    shall open any carriage for the purpose of entering the
    same after the tickets have been examined and the
    carriage doors locked by the person appointed for
    that purpose, or who shall let himself out of any
    carriage, or attempt to do so, at any station or at any
    time during the journey, by the use of a private key
    or other instrument, shall be liable to a penalty not
    exceeding two pounds.

19. No person shall, without the consent of the
    General Manager or other authorized officer, travel
    outside a carriage on any railway under any circum-
    stances, or get into or upon or quit any railway
    carriage when the train is in motion; and any person
    doing so, or attempting to do so, shall be liable to a
    penalty not exceeding two pounds.

20. Loaded firearms are on no account to be taken
    into or placed upon any carriage, wagon, truck, or
    other vehicle forming or intended to form a train, or
    any portion of a train, on the railway; and every
    person so offending shall be liable to a penalty not
    exceeding five pounds.
