Apart from my having spent many formative years sitting on the Brute
trolleys at BNS and therefore having a little fondness for the place,
wouldn't they be best to ignore all 'tool box' alerts in the hope that
one of them turned out to be something which would make the station
'light and airy'? (I don't mean leave the passengers around of course!)
Then they could claim the whole rebuilding exercise on the insurance!
