DISHONOURING THE BRAVE

 The  ornate former Townsville Railway  Station  ticket  office  with its large First World  War honour roll of northern division  railway patriots  who volunteered  to  fight  for  the  Empire is now inappropriately being used to store bollards, witches hats  and  a  wet  floor warning sign  , says  our Shipping  Reporter , who  provided  the   photographic  evidence . 

 
While the nearby Victory in the Pacific  fountain  was  nearly devoid of  rubbish , unlike so many other occasions , reported  in this blog ,  he did  spot a  piece of plastic and a stone in the bottom chamber .However  the path  leading from the fountain to the  old ticket  office was  covered in leaves, there being  some inside  on  the  floor . As usual , the nearby bus shelter was  grotty .
