REPAIRING THE STATION

The New Britain railroad station, which all travellers who happen 10 alight in il never forget, is 10 under go repairs. What is being done is 10 move the ticket office 10 the rail side of the station-where it formerly vas located. Some other minor repairs will be made, and then the public is expected to think something worthwhile has been achieved by the great New Haven railroad.
 The ticket office was moved to it's present location because it was deemed better place than on the track side of the station. Either the former dIagnosticians were wrong or the present-day bosses are wrong
 Anyway, the station for all prac- tical purposes as well as looks, won't be a bit better when the repairs have been completed than it is now. There is only one satisfactory treatment for an ancient station and that is 10 build q new one.
