A Regular Service between Margate and Ramsgate.
FRENCH, BANISTER AND CO., LTD., PI( asa: t Place, Cliftonville.—This company owns three Halliord 22-seater chars-it-banes. Two were delivered in the spring of 1912, and one was new this year. In addition, a 45 h.p. Daimler single-decker to seat 27 was delivered at the beginning of August. This last machine is fitted with detachable windows and rear entrance. The Daimler and one Hallferd are operated on a ten-minute service between Ramsgate and Margate with very satisfactory results. The other two Halllords are employed during.the season on trips to such places as Canterbury, Deal, Herne Bay, Dover and Folkestone, with short trips to Minster, Grove Ferry and Sandwich in the mornings and evenings. The company's vehicles ate all painted green, and known as the " Green Cars" have undoubtedly earned an excellent local reputation for comfort and reliability. Mr. Cecil C. Smith informs .us that his vehicles are used for frequent runs to various race meetings, and they are also in great request for private parties from the various hotels and boarding houses which abound in Margate. During the winter, the ears are thoroughly overhauled and the bodies done up, but there is a certain amount of work in connection with football clubs and outings of that kind.
