I`ve been to this shortcut and it clears alot of my issues up . thanks .

thank you all for your postings . it seems the railways can make up there own rules(not abiding by there own guidelines) but how about this for a solution , you buy the cheapest return ticket eg my local station is guiseley so if i go to leeds shopping or in the car , you could buy a return...

how do you gain access to platforms without buying a ticket ? is there still such things as platform tickets ? and how do station staff react to spotters and photography ? i`m thinking of mainline stations like leeds . thanks.

thanks for the 67`s info .
