I received a letter from Erewash Council following a recent official complaint by me about the state of the railway wagon at the traffic island at the bottom end of Chalons Way, Ilkeston. The letter said there was money in the budget and they were investigating the best way to proceed. As the money has been in the budget since April last year I find it staggering that the Erewash Council has still not worked out how to fix one railway wagon. Unbelievable or what!
The wagon could be renamed the Black Pearl as it will soon be see through. A bit like the Tory Council, transparently not working for the whole of the Borough.
How about replacing the name 'STANTON' with pictures of the 'Iron Lady' … it would soon get refurbished then ;-)
ReplyDeleteJoking apart how about replacing the planks with recycled 'wood effect ' plastic or have the wagon taken to The Midland Railway Centre work @ Butterley.
Failing that there must be many unemployed men from the old carriage & wagon works @ Derby who could help !
