Did she waft in from paradise? :D (Only people of a certain age would understand)

Somewhat unfair. Twice I have seen him catching a train from Orpington Station, albeit quite a few years ago.

I think this example raises two interesting issues. 1. When the rules were drawn up, no one presumably thought that a journey could be undertaken by contactless, not requiring the pre-purchase of a ticket. If the OP had travelled by tube across London, then it should surely count as one...

Stephenson's route 14 may qualify. It runs from Southend on Sea to Great Wakering, but for those personnel or residents approved by the MOD, allows passengers to continue to Churchend and Courtsend. Roger French blogged about this route...

Likewise, isn't there a rule that a route is valid if it is the shortest route between two points? I would have thought a direct train from Reading to Gatwick would have met this requirement.

No, they definitely had to replace branded 477 Streetlites for the MMCs, and I thought it was due to emission standards.

They are no longer a police force. They are now a police service, but I have no idea who they serve - it isn't the victims of crime.

But presumably the shorter diagrams expect coaches to be used on more than one return journey. Would there be time to recharge between trips?

For complete certainty, ask the guard before you board if you can travel on his/her train. Getting permission in advance puts you in a strong position.

I seem to recall that Arriva had to replace fairly new Streetlites with newer Enviro 200 MMCs to meet emission limits. I assume that the older 2014 Enviro 200s meet these limits.

What accessibility issues are there? The carriages used are, as far as I know, the same as used in Wales and the Isle of Wight.

From the train company's perspective, if they take you to Court, they will incur some legal costs and any compensation payment the Court asks you to make to them the Court will decide the value. If they agree to ask you for an Out of Court settlement, the train company decide how much to ask...

At this stage, we don't know - you need to wait to see if a letter arrives. If it does, come back here for more advice.

If this is the case, then count yourself incredibly lucky. You must from here on in pay the correct fare for every journey you undertake, because if you come to their attention again, you will not be so lucky. Make sure you retain this ticket until you can be certain that the case is closed -...

Although Go-Ahead won the Transport for Cornwall routes several years back, some minibus routes were subcontracted to OTS, Travel Cornwall, and Hopleys.

Based on total sales? Based on drivers' experience? Based on reliability?

"paid with my bank card" could mean bought a ticket with it. I think you meant you tapped in with it, so you may want to clarify this. You also need to quote their reference in the subject heading of the letter - it will let them tie your response up with your case.

Does your ticket buying history show 100's of random stations, or maybe only half a dozen. If the latter, can you demonstrate that, for example, A is your current home, B your main office, C is your branch office, D is your parents home, E is your girlfriends home, F is your grandparents house...

But don't forget, just because there are tickets on the OP's account does not mean that s/he used them - they could have bought them for someone else, or indeed, not been used at all. If, as others have said, the OP was stopped in possession of an invalid ticket, then that does put a different...
