§ Mr. BowisTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport what proposals British Rail has made to him to replace rolling stock lost in the Clapham accident.
§ Mr. PortilloI understand that British Rail intends to order very quickly six additional four-car class 319 units as an extension to the order for 20 units that we authorised this summer. These will replace the six units written off in the Clapham junction accident. The replacement units should he delivered in the course of 1989.
