HC Deb 26 September 1939 vol 351 cc1228-9W
Sir S. Reed

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in connection with the special trains which are to be run to and from Scotland to assist Members of Parliament to attend sittings of this House, it will be possible to make certain provision for the general travelling public, and so reduce the inconvenience caused by the necessary curtailment of railway services?

Captain Wallace

Where special trains are run for the convenience of Members of Parliament, any unused accommodation on such trains is placed at the disposal of the general public.
