RACE TRAINS
(To the Editor.)
Sir,—After reading the grievances expressed? by "Occasional Punter" and "Regular Punter," I certainly think that the Railway Department has,been doing the right thing. ■ If your correspondents are able to attend race meetings, then why should they worry about the charges and their mode o£ transport to and from Trentham. The fares appear paltry enough to the money punted away on the tote by your correspondents. There has been far too much gambling in our midst, and it is time a halt should be made, and I am sure the Railway Department has taken up. the correct attitude to ' discourage gambling by providing uncomfortable carriages' and trucks.—l am, etc.,
NON-PUNTER,
