ANimportant step in the development of London Transport's country bus and Green Line coach services has been taken in the transfer of the central administrative staff from Reigate to the Board's headquarters at 55, Broadway, Westminster. It was felt that many advantages were to he derived from having the general manager, the operating superintendent and the indoor superintendent, • with their staffs, situated in the middle of the area for which they are responsible, instead i)f in a town near the southern boundary of the Board's territory.
The progress of the country buses and Green Line coaches dniing the past five and a half years is one of the most interesting consequences of the formation of London Transport. The passengers carried by the country buses numbered 39,400,000 more in 1937-38 than in 1933-34; the increase on the Green Line coaches was 6,100,000.
