§ 75. Mr. Bateyasked the Minister of Transport what has become of the railway carriages which were used on the "Silver Jubilee," the "Coronation," and the "Pullman" trains; and why only the oldest carriages are in use now?
§ Captain WallaceAll the main line stock, new as well as old, is at present in use except the special carriage sets used on the "Silver Jubilee," "Coronation," "Pullman" and other high-speed trains. These sets provide less seating accommodation than the ordinary sets, and in present conditions it is necessary to provide the maximum seating accommodation on the reduced services which are now being operated.
