WHEN United Automobile Services, VV Ltd., applied last week for permission to operate stage services in place of rail facilities suspended by the closing of the Hawes-Northallerton line. North Riding County Council objected that there would be inadequate provision for schoolchildren travelling between Bedale, Leyburn and Askrigg. Mr. W. R. Hargrave, for U.A.S., said it would cost them £2,500 a year to provide the services, which would be used by only 46 children.
Mr. A. E. Beckett, for the county council, argued that the company should operate the services, even at a foss. The council paid £23,000 a year to the applicants for schoolchildren's travel. It would cost the council £500 a year to provide the special facilities. Ha suggested that as the British Trans port Commission owned U.A.S, their loss on providing the services should be balanced against the Conimission's saving of £14,000 a year on closing the railway line.
U.A.S. Were losing 6d. a mile on all their services in the area, said Mr. H. G. Baker, traffic manager.
Overruling the objection, the Yorkshire Licensing Authoritygranted the application.
