The need for the additional posts listed above and the increases in provision in certain subheads under Other Charges Annually Recurrent arises mainly in connexion with the arrival in 1962-63 of 23 addi- tional coaches and the introduction of an intensified service involving 10 extra trains each day.
The items included under Special Expenditure are self-explanatory.
