hahaha... i rarely login anymore but someone pointed out this thread to me! :lol::lol::lol:

i wonder who could be responsible for the novelty ticket stamps, i hear batman is really popular!!!!!! :wink::wink::wink:

it has a TVM machine on platform one

well if you think that you can do better using google than a trained professional then why don't you apply for a control job.... Hmmmmm, didn't think so!! sorry, i just get frustrated with people who think 'cos they read something on the internet that they know more than the person doing the...

McDonald's staff get discounted food, ASDA staff get discounted shopping ect ect, so why shouldn't railway staff get discounted travel(?!) i detect a hint of jealousy in your post, just saying! fyi, staff travel facilities are available to ALL railway staff regardless of grade not just...

i've read enough "armchair expertise" as i said and threads like this are always full of know-it-alls versions of what they think happened and what they would have done... blah blah blah!! i never said i hadn't read the thread, i said i hadn't read all 25 (now 26) pages of it and the drivel it...

that's all fine and well, breaks of journey ARE allowed but im pretty sure that you cant buy a ticket, say for example, from Sheffield to York, valid until the 30th April, decide to spend the night in Doncaster and then resume your journey the following day (1st may) when your ticket is now out...

i am confused about this.... what type of ticket were you travelling on, what time of day did you continue your journey?! its not entirely shocking for a guard to say a ticket dated the previous day is invalid, only certain ticket types can have an overnight break of journey and there is a...
