RAILTRACK and South West Trains have been accused of treating Alton in a "slovenly" way.
District councillor Bob Booker, who has been badgering the two companies to do something about the state of the town's station since April of last year, believes it gives a bad impression to visitors when they get off the train.
A full version of this story will be found in the Alton Herald of August 4, 2000.
