HC Deb 17 March 1919 vol 113 c1755W
Major BLAIR

asked the President of the Board of Trade if his Department has at present the power to order the reopening of a station closed during the War by the Railway Executive Committee; and, if so, will he take immediate steps to reopen Coborn Road (Great Eastern Railway) Station?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

The general question of the provision of facilities for traffic on railways is one for the Railway and Canal Commission rather than for the Board of Trade, but I have been in communication with the Great Eastern Railway Company and am informed by them that arrangements are being made to reopen Coborn Road Station on and from the 1st May next.
