§ SIR JOHN STIRLING-MAXWELL (Glasgow, College)I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that the junction between the Oban Railway and West Highland Railway at Crianlarich, though completed for some months, is closed by interdict to the great inconvenience of the public, and that goods have to be carted from one station to another; and whether he will take steps to have communication opened forthwith?
§ THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. C. T. RITCHIE,) CroydonThe Board of Trade cannot interfere in this matter. Certain additional land is required to enable the company to make the junction available for traffic and the company have applied to Parliament for powers to acquire it.
