For local traffic on the Company’s line for distances over 14 miles the Company’s classified rates for interchanged traffic will be charged.

REGULATIONS.

All goods specified in Part IV., and not otherwise provided for in Part II., will be charged in accordance with the classified rates in the preceding tables, but subject to the following conditions and regulations, viz.:

(1.) Goods from different consignors to one consignee, or from one consignor to different consignees, will be charged separately.

(a.) Goods of Classes A, B, C, D, E, from one consignor to one consignee, will be charged at the classified rate, or at the rates prescribed by Part III. or IV. hereof, as may be provided, except the charge at scale for small lots amounts to more.

(b.) Any number of consignments of different classes from one consignor to one consignee will be charged separately or as one consignment of the highest class to which either of them belongs.

(c.) But when a consignment which would be charged at classified rates, and not at the scale for small lots, is sent with small lots, such consignment may be charged separately, and the small lots may be treated independently under regulation (b).

(2.) Scale for Small Lots.

Where classified rates are varied by regulations or provisions in Parts III. or IV. hereof, such varied rates shall be substituted for the classified rates in computing charges for small lots.
