Octr 4th 1833; Report made to the Stockton and Darlington Railway Commettee by John Graham on the Coach Department


Gentlemen
As we have got the Coaches to work well from Darlington to Middlesbrow, so that any Gentlemen may Leave Darlington at ½ past 8 O Clock and go to Middlesbrow and do Busness and be back at Darlington again by 12 O Clock;
The next thing that I would beg Leave to call the attention of the Commettee to, is the Coaching at the West end of the Line, as there is very bad accomodations for people Traveling I would therefore Recomend the Company to take it into there owen Hands
