Correct, I had forgotten that caveat. This D34/D50 discount was one that had fallen off the radar so to speak. Most passengers eligible in Scotland either got free travel (visually impaired) or were using a disabled person's railcard and/or travelling at a time where the full off peak fare...

Regarding break of journey. I would suspect that this is not valid for the supplement. I could ask for clarification but sometimes not having an official determination is best. I suspect that any mention that break of journey is permitted might be in error. However, I'm prepared to be corrected...

I would concur. In addition, would the passenger be entitled to the D34 discount (for blind and those confined to wheelchairs) on the Newcastle to Berwick section? Also, do they hold a disabled person's railcard?

There is no general free travel in Scotland for holders of National Entitlement Cards [NEC]. NEC concessionary fares are for residents of specific local authority areas and are limited to those areas (or in the case of Strathclyde throughout the former Strathclyde Region). There is no...

I'm sure Barrhill in Ayrshire had a similar system.

These questions are important. At what days & times do you travel? If any of these are before 10:00 on a Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays) what times do select for travel, and why?

As an aside: no banknotes are legal tender in Scotland, nor Northern Ireland for that matter.

You must write to them and correct the false details, otherwise you may find yourself prosecuted in your absence when you fail to respond to correspondence from the railway, and ultimately the courts. This for a matter you can easily solve beforehand without court action. Was your invalid...

I actually use quite a few, including Google Maps, depending on the circumstances. These include, but are not limited to, the following:- Realtime Trains Traksy National Rail Enquiries Traveline A generic TOC app or website (in my case ScotRail) I do not use all of them every time, but...

Hopefully this clarifies matters, think about it this way: you have committed a string of separate offences; TfL are entitled to prosecute you separately for each of these offences. If, when, you are found guilty of these offences, you will then have a string of criminal convictions on your...

Google maps certainly has its place, but I would strongly advise you to check any information given with official sources before relying on it.

Regarding pendants: are these available to purchase at Sterling or do they just do furniture and related items?

Maybe? However, it's often not a good look to be seen to be gung-ho in threatening your customers with criminal prosecution - the vast majority of whom will be completely valid ticket wise.

If money is no object then a solicitor may help in obtaining some mitigation of your sentence, but I doubt at this late stage they could stop the process. As has been stated above, TfL do not do out of court settlements. It's either a formal warning or a prosecution - and they have chosen...

Your first sentence is a bit confusing. If you were travelling to, not into as that changes the meaning, London why did you alight at Cambridge? It appears that you were spoken to near Finsbury Park, so that implies that the interaction took place on board a train. Look over the general...

Just a bit of tidying up. You may wish to refine it further. Basically, you are saying "it wasn't me guv".....and that you can prove it (not that you are required to) if desired.

I get that but you just walk through into Standard Premium before alighting. You generally have from Carlisle to Slateford to sort yourself out.

Is this train not set down only at Haymarket so this is academic. In any case who is booking first class tickets from Haymarket to Edinburgh?

In theory it should be possible to apply the discount to any pair of stations, where both stations are served by an English based TOC, but not necessarily the same TOC. Notwithstanding the fact that the railcard is not valid on ScotRail, this creates fares where there is no valid journey...

Top tip re. the sleeper.
