Overview
Jun. 23--ON TOP OF THE WELL-AIRED PROBLEMS with the new 200 million grandstand at Ascot, top-hatted and befrocked punters who dared to use the train have been humiliated this week. The normal gentle downhill stroll to the station is barred to London-bound passengers, who are sent off on a trek to the station car park. There hordes of barriers, all sponsored by BlueSq.com, snake passengers around in a long queue. Then comes a veritable army of police, South West Trains and MacLellan Attlaw Security jobsworths telling punters just where they may stand on the platform. It's more Berlin than Berks.
