Admin phantom Posted January 7, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 The other thing, if someone was to get on the train at Parson Street, as there is no option to buy a ticket from this station they could continue they're journey and of course make themselves available to buy a ticket from a conductor on the train. If the train just happened to be really busy, what a shame if the conductor never got through the train ! As Parson Street has no option to purchase a ticket, the penalty fare can't be enforced - just saying (of course I wouldn't want to encourage any fare dodging) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Should I take an even bigger risk than the rest of you and book a cheap advance flight back home from China? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Should I take an even bigger risk than the rest of you and book a cheap advance flight back home from China? Do it. You can always go to Yeovil instead if we fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunnie123 Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 But what happens when you get to Paddington and the barriers there? If I remeber rightly if they expect a lot of football fans the barriers are open remeber saying this summer on my way home from Paris could have gotten away with not paying as the barriers were open due to Man City and arsenal fans in the charity shield!

Admin phantom Posted January 7, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 But what happens when you get to Paddington and the barriers there? Not all platforms have them - also the disabled barriers are much slower opening. Of course as a paying traveller wouldn't want to put the idea in anyones mind Remember going to the Hull match, ticket never checked up or back on the train, and witnessed numerous people travelling for free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
