Curtailment

Working, healthy people contribute to the reduction of medical expenses, the rise of the eligible age for benefits, and the curtailment of their costs.

The railways are fully alive to the position, and are sparing neither effort nor expense to provide more attractive trains and to effect economies, but in such circumstances some curtailment of services is inevitable.

Curtailment was said to be imminent of services on the ex-Caledonian Glasgow-Carlisle main line via Carstairs, also between Glasgow and Lanark and on other ex-C.R. lines in the Glasgow area.
