A note on the Undirected Rural Postman Problem polytope

This note refers to the article by G. Ghiani and G. Laporte ``A branch-and-cut algorithm for the Undirected Rural Postman Problem', Math. Program. 87 (2000). We show that some conditions for the facet-defining property of the basic non-trivial inequalities are not sufficient and that the Rural Postman Problem polytope is more complex even when focusing on canonical inequalities only.
