(b) Giving the extent and the approximate cost of the work involved in constructing platforms on the fast lines at the stations between Harrow and Moor Park.

The Chairman said that a working party had been set up by the Central T.C.C. to report on trains not calling at certain stations.  The report of the working party, which had been approved by the Central T.C.C. had been issued and that they did not recommend trains calling at the stations under notice, with the exception that a stop at Chorley Wood may be desirable at some time in the future.  The London D.T.M had this point under consideration.  The Chairman will arrange for a suitable reply to be sent to the Commission.

(b) Publicity

It was decided that the question of publicity should be deferred until the next meeting.
