Willis, for British Railways, the area manager for D. Witille said that, after a recent meeting, he came away well pleased with promises made by 13.R. but it remained to be seen whether they could be carried out. The service to Paddington was satisfactory, but the railways fell down on delivery to Covent Garden market. The Bristol service, he said. was good.
