ROAD STATIONS.—Passengers intending to join the Trains at any of the stopping places are desired to be in good time, as the train will leave each Station as soon as ready, without reference to the time stated in the tables, the main object being to perform the whole journey as expeditiously as possible. Passengers will be booked only conditionally upon there being room on the arrival of the Trains, and they will have the preference of seats in the order in which they are booked. No persons are booked after the arrival of the Train.—All persons are requested to get into and alight from the coaches invariably on the left side, as the only certain means of preventing accidents from Trains passing in an opposite direction. CONDUCTORS, GUARDS, AND PORTERS.—Every Train is provided with Guards, and a Conductor, who is responsible for the order and regularity of the journey. The Company’s Porters will load and unload the luggage, and put it into or upon any omnibus or other carriage at any of the Stations. No fees or gratuities allowed to be received by the Conductors, Guards, Porters, or other persons in the service of the Company. SMOKING, SELLING OF LIQUORS, &c.—No smoking is allowed in the Station-houses, or in any of the coaches, even with the consent of the passengers. A substantial breakfast may be had at the Station-house at Birmingham, by parties, going by the early train; but no person is allowed to sell liquors or eatables of any kind upon the line.—The Company earnestly hope that the public will co-operate with them in enforcing this regulation, as it will be the means of removing a cause of delay, and will greatly diminish the chance of accident. Goods sent to Birmingham, Manchester, or Liverpool, by the evening Trains, are generally delivered early on the following morning. CONVEYANCES TO LOCAL TOWNS FROM STATIONS. BESCOT BRIDGE.
