HC Deb 28 November 1916 vol 88 cc167-8
99. Mr. W. THORNE

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been drawn to the quantities of personal luggage it is the practice of some people to take with them on railway journeys; whether he is aware that with the present depleted station staffs the handling of this luggage results in delaying trains; and whether he will advise the Railway Executive on the necessity for imposing some restriction on the quantity of luggage per passenger in order to facilitate traffic?

Mr. PRETYMAN

This question has already received the attention of the Railway Executive Committee, and I am considering certain proposals on the subject.
