HC Deb 08 June 1984 vol 61 c286W
Mr. Prescott

asked the Secretary of State for Transport on how many miles of railway in west Yorkshire services operate which are subsidised in whole or in part by the West Yorkshire passenger transport executive; and how many miles of railway do not have such subsidised services.

Mr. Ridley

Approximately 230 route miles of railway in west Yorkshire are used by passenger services, of which services supported by the PTE use about 150. They are the only passenger services on about 20 of these route-miles, and share the remainder with other services.
