Syd,
I always thought that the transport act from way back that created both the nationalised railways and the equivalent road service did state quite plainly that goods needing to travel more than 100 miles had to be offered to the railways first and later to road haulage.
Always seemed a bit odd to have a rail system and then create a competing road haulage organisation.
Has that act ever been repealed?
