1. Position of schemes still to be submitted (Contd.)
(b) St.Pancras - Leicester/Nottingham
The Chairman reported that since the last meeting the Line Traffic
Manager, Derby, had intimated that he proposed to ask for the allocation of a
limited number of diesel multiple units to cover the St.Pancras - Leicester/Nottingham
semi-fast services from September, 1962.
It was felt there was little prospect of units becoming available from
existing services and in view of the decision taken in regard to the St.Pancras -
Leicester/Nottingham scheme (Minute 889) it was agreed that the Line Traffic Manager
should consider the practicability of utilising available diesel locomotives.
(c) Chester - Rhyl - Llandudno
The passenger receipts figures had been referred back by the Chief Accountant
to the Divisional Traffic Manager for reconsideration, When the financial details
were complete the matter would be referred to the Line Traffic Manager, Manchester, to
progress the scheme.
The financial details in respect of the Nottingham Mid. - Mansfield - Worksop
scheme were with the Line Traffic Manager, Derby. The assessment of the parcels
receipts for the Derby Mid. - Sheffield Mid. scheme was being reconsidered by the D.T.M.,
Nottingham, and the financial assessment for the Derby Friargate - Grantham scheme was being
compiled by the Chief Accountant. On completion of the financial assessments of these
two schemes, they would be submitted to the L.T.M., Derby, for further consideration of the
future of these services,
2. Allocation of units being built at Derby and by
Contractors
