Such goods will, however, be received, held, and carried at the risk of the Department (subject to the provisions of the Act and the by-laws and regulations made thereunder) if a request in writing that the goods be received, held, or carried at the risk of the Department be delivered to the Department with the goods, which request shall, in the case of goods consigned, be deemed to be sufficiently made if the consignment-note relating to such goods is endorsed with the words “At Railway risk” and a receipt for such goods similarly endorsed is obtained at the time of tendering the goods, and in such cases the goods will be received, held, and carried at the risk of the Department (subject as aforesaid) and the charges computed as provided in this the General Scale of Charges or in the Goods—Local Rates Scale of Charges, as the case may be, for such goods when received for carriage at owner’s risk will be increased by one-sixth.

The amount which may be recovered from the Department in respect of goods, whether carried at owner’s risk, or at railway risk, is subject to the provisions of paragraph 2 hereof.
