Hi All,

Just wondering which TOCs print their own ticket wallets? Have a few National Rail ones lying around but would much rather have some TOC branded ones if possible? Does anyone know where any ex-TOC ones might be available aswell? If anyones got a few from TOCs that aren't nearby me then and are willing to part I'd happily drop a couple of quid their way for P&P!

Cheers!

SWT have their "Do you know there's a ticket office in your own home?" promoting their own site.

The last one I bought was a Get Ahead of the Games one for £1.49 on eBay, looking for some ex-TOC ones as well but not wanting to pay the high prices they go for online!

XC give them out sometimes and I've seen red VT ones.


Hmm, wonder where I'd get an XC one from? They don't manage anywhere I don't think and TM's bever seen to have one:(. Would love a Virgin one though, their the TOC I travel with the most, and LM if possible..

I have two mint 'Wales and West' ones if anyone's interested. Not looking to profit myself, but a suitable donation to charity....

If interested then email bnm@hotmail.com. I'll reply with further info.

(Hope this post doesn't fall foul of any forum rules....)

Best bet would probably be to write a nice letter to XC customer services asking if they'd be willing to send one out to you (I'd put in a stamped return envelope as well).

TPE definitely do their own wallets, which seem to be widely distributed in the north.

Where is nearby to you?

SWT have/had three varieties, current one is a red plastic one with three sections, unlike Oyster card holders which have two sections. Send me a PM if interested.

I have a Thames Trains ticket wallet I got when I renewed my railcard a few years back.

SWT have their "Do you know there's a ticket office in your own home?" promoting their own site.

To encourage the continued decline in usage of their own ticket offices, given more good reason to close them.

I have managed to get a couple of varieties now;
- NR Blue
- Virgin Trains
- CrossCountry
- SWT 'Did you know there's a ticket office'
- SWT 'Easy ways to buy your ticket' (both SWT courtesy of The Colonel)
- London Midland (central LM logo, lots of pages inside, not one of the three slot holders)
- Northern (leather, similar design to London Midland)
- First Scotrail

Is there any "obvious" ones I'm missing?
