For Oldfield Park station they get the locals to do it and I must say the station has never looked better.

I'm still suprised the kids haven't used the rocks around the "Oldfield Park" to throw at trains though!

The machines are very hard wearing, the only vulnerable part of these machines is the screen which is easy to replace.
