BEAUDIARIS AND DISTRICT MOTOR CAR CO., LTD., Avondale. —This Welsh company is the local agent for the London and North Western Railway Co. It finds employment for three chars-à-bancs, and these are: a 20 h.p. Thornycroft, purchased in 1910; a 40 h.p. F.I.A.T., of the same year; and a 30 h.p. Halley, secured in 1911. Mr. T. J. Jones, the secretary of the company, tells us that the traffic experienced during the 1913 summer season has been very good. The principal service is run in connection with the train " times ". at Bangor station, and the daily mileage per vehicle is 60. The service differs from the ordinary seaside char-d-bancs work, in that it is an all-the-year-round one, and is in reality a regular link for the district between the railway at Bangor and the tel.vr. of Beaumaris.
