Goods Ex ship for Country Stations-When goods landed ex ship are consigned direct from the ship to a station other than the port sorting station and are handed to the Department so that they can be forwarded direct to destination, railage, wharf to destination, is to be charged. However, when goods are not consigned direct from the ship to destination, or are landed in such a way that they cannot be forwarded direct to destination, but first have to be sorted or otherwise dealt with at the usual sorting station for the port, haulage or railage between the wharf and the port sorting station will be charged in addition to railage from the sorting station to destination. The appropriate charges for handling, sorting, and dividing will apply where incurred, in addition to the foregoing charges.
