Dining On The Midland Railway.

DINING ON THE MIDLAND RAILWAY .

The Midland Railway has undoubtedly been the pioneer of many of the improvements that have of late years contributed so largely to the comfort of the travelling public , and their latest advance in this direction should be welcomed especially by those who , while precluded from travelling luxuriously , are

nevertheless not insensible to the creature comforts being obtainable with all the agreeable surroundings of their Wore wealth y fellow travellers . That a great railway "ke the Midland should place such facilities within the reach of third-class travellers would scarcely have been credited by the most ardent advocate of better accommodation even 10 years ago . Travellers to Scotland 'n the dining carriage express train leaving London ( Q . to - -a —1 to

n wt . l ancras ) at 2 . 10 p . m . during the winter can have '' ncheons served soon after departure at the moderate charge of 2 s . 6 d . first-class , or third-class ( inclusive charge ) 2 s . also a la carte at buffet charges as per ai ' y bill of fare , while teas are served from 4 . 30 to 6 P-ii-j at 6 d ., or first-class gd . We have little doubt of e success of this experiment , winch will be almost crtain to lead to further improvements in the same dlr Wtion .
