HC Deb 09 June 1947 vol 438 c51W
27. Mr. Vane

asked the Minister of Transport what instructions have been issued by his Department affecting the making up of lost time by the drivers of passenger trains in order to try to maintain punctuality.

Mr. Barnes

None, but I am informed that the companies' rules require drivers to regulate the running of their engines to ensure punctuality so far as practicable, care being taken to avoid excessive speed.
