PLA was certainly still available when I started university in 1979. My trunk was booked PLA from Southampton to Newcastle. At the cost of £1, if I recall correctly, it was collected from home and delivered to my hall of residence. At that time the service was managed by the Red Star Parcels division of British Rail. I think the service survived until the late 80s and was then abolished, probably in the name of progress.
