Dear Mrs. Wareing,

With reference to your letter dated 22nd February, 1945, herewith Railway Concession Certificate as requested.

In regard to the question of moving the car it is regretted that no carriers note for movement by rail can be issued for moving cars belonging to missing personnel, even if it was on this Station. There is an arrangement for movement of cycles by rail, which is probably the authority you were thinking of.

Your civilian[deleted]s[/deleted] petrol coupon issueing [sic]authority should be able to provide you with the necessary coupons for moving the car from Market Harborough to your home address, if you will show this correspondence and the Registration Certificate.

Yours sincerely,

[Signature] FL
