HC Deb 11 November 1941 vol 374 c2076W
Sir J. Mellor

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport whether he is aware that the Southern Railway is advertising cheap fares and reserved accommodation for parties and special trains and fares for large parties, and is offering to supply suggestions for tour outings and collecting cards for outing subscriptions; and whether, in view of the need for conserving fuel, this practice has his approval?

Colonel Llewellin

The notice to which my hon. Friend refers is out of date, and is taken out of carriages as they go into depots for servicing.
