HC Deb 20 May 1946 vol 423 cc9-10
12. Mr. McKie

asked the Minister of Transport it he will state the reason for the withdrawal of the 8 a.m. train from Stranraer to London, St. Pancras, which withdrawal is causing great inconvenience to the travelling public.

Mr. Barnes

There was insufficient traffic to justify the continued running of the train through to London. From 6th May, 1946, it has terminated at Dumfries with a connection to London. I am making further inquiries and will circulate the result with the OFFICIAL REPORT.
