§ MR. H. D. GREENE () ShrewsburyTo ask tha President of the Board of Trade if he can state when arrangements will be completed for stopping the annoyance and damage from vibration arising on the Central London Railway; and whether the Board of Trade will take steps to compel the adoption of the suggestions of their Committee.
(Answered by Mr. Gerald Balfour.) The Company have recently informed me that, in view of the suggestions made by the Committee, they decided to substitute motor cars for the present locomotives; that tenders for the construction and equipment of the cars were let in May last, and that the contractors assure them that delivery of the cars will commence in the early part of next year.
