RHA chairman Mr. Philip Turner put the great Freightliner controversy "Into perspective" at the South Wales area annual dinner last week.
Even better methods of carrying traffic would be evolved, he said. And the alarming question the three-year-long Freightliner battle posed was: "Are we to suffer the same sort of obstruction everytime a new and better method of carrying goods is devised?"
Said Mr. Turner: "We must take steps to see that in any similar situation the only consideration should be the benefit to trade and industry. Where road and rail are both involved as with liner trains, co-operation all the way through and at every level would appear to offer the best chance of success."
