Re: Train Service, Belper - Derby.

We have received a letter from the L.M.S. Derby, in regard to the train service which was originally put on for the conveyance of our Staff. It will be noted from the attached copy that this train service is now being discontinued.

If at some future date we require the train service reinstating, we shall be pleased to take the matter up with the L.M.S. if sufficient demand justifies us doing so.

D/BP.
