They started this a few years ago at Luton Station for the local carnival, and everyone was appalled at just how much metal work was being carried.
Now it's part of the SOP every year that all passengers arriving off trains have to walk the gauntlet of dogs and metal tunnels. And some of the dogs get excited when they smell restricted drugs too....gotcha !!
