HC Deb 15 July 1966 vol 731 c284W
Mr. Edward M. Taylor

asked the Minister of Transport when the cross-Channel container carrying service will be introduced by British Railways, as recommended by her Department.

Mr. Swingler

My right hon. Friend has approved proposals by the Railways Board for container services between Harwich (Parkeston Quay) and Zeebrugge to form part of a completely integrated door-to-door service between the United Kingdom and Continental Europe, available in early 1968.
