HC Deb 05 May 1887 vol 314 c944
MR. L. FRY (Bristol, N.)

asked the Postmaster General, Whether he can now state when arrangements for carrying the mid-day mails between Bristol and South Wales, through the Severn Tunnel, will come into operation; and, if not, what is the reason for the delay?

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES) (Cambridge University)

The Post Office is still in communication with the Railway Company in reference to the conveyance of the local mails between Bristol and South Wales by the Severn Tunnel Line; and endeavours will be made to bring the matter to an early conclusion.
