Even the GWR ticket machines have pretty poor screens that are annoying to use. Surely there's a way to get a better screen on the ticket machines?

After this post I made, what are some other ways to improve ticket machines to make them more usable?

They do come up on TOC apps and E-tickets!

Simple solution would be allowing people to still search by station name as well as CRS codes. As well as that there's an order confirmation so people can check the tickets they're buying before paying

It would make it easier and quicker to use the ticket machine and avoid mishaps with the wrong station. For example, instead of typing Henley-on-Thames, we could type HOT. Instead of typing Burnham (Buckinghamshire), we could type BNM. Instead of typing London Paddington, we could type PAD...

It would probably be dangerous for trains to be running in those kinds of conditions, especially considering the trains are running several metres below a 3rd floor window!

What would happen if I tried to board a DLR train on platform 10 (and didn't get kicked back off), where would I go? And can Platform 10 be used for departures if Platform 9 is closed?

Holy crap, that's at least 10 metres. No wonder GWR is shutting down the line!

Currently it's at Savernake running 1A88 Penzance to Paddington, running 51mins late. https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:P22608/2026-01-23/detailed

GWR have told me the sleeper's cancelled in both directions tonight

Wait 2 days as they might automatically refund you for any maximum fares you get, or claim here: https://tfl.gov.uk/fares/refunds-and-replacements/exceeded-maximum-journey-time

What would happen if I (tried to) get off at a pickup only stop or get on at a dropoff only stop?
