-------------------------------------------------------------------
APPROVED LODGINGS, of all classes, are provided in London for Passengers
by Midland Trains. The Agents will give Tickets of reference on
application, without charge, and an Office is opened in London,
at DONALD’S WATERLOO DINING ROOMS, 14 Seymour-street, near
Euston Station, where an agent is in regular attendance to conduct
parties who go up unprepared with Lodgings.
The Managers have much pleasure in stating that the immense numbers
who have travelled under their arrangements have been conducted
in perfect safety- indeed in the history of the Midland Lines, no
accident, attended with personal injury, has ever happened on an
Excursion train. In conducting the extraordinary traffic of this
Great Occasion the first object is to ensure safety, and that object
has hitherto been happily achieved.
With the fullest confidence, inspired by past success, the Conductors
have pleasure in urging those who have not yet visited the Exhibition,
to avail themselves of the present facilities, and to improve the
opportunity which will close on 11th October.
All communications respecting the Trains to be addressed to the
Managers, for the Company,
John Cuttle & John Calverley, Wakefield;
Thomas Cook, Leicester.
October 2nd, 1851.
