@ChimeWhistle What about a family of 4. 2 adults and two children, if you do 3 adults and one child you get the group save which makes the total cost cheaper.
I think ticket offices at railway stations are one of those things that remind of what a society should actually be. Real jobs and real interactions , and community can sometimes be placed above shareholder dividends. It's a choice we can make. #SaveTicketOffices
Only if you're able to use a machine
or the TVM will actually print your ticket....
Or you understand which ticket you need.....
100% of tickets available at the ticket office. Comes with a smile too 😁
Did you know? 🧐
99% of tickets sold in offices last year are available to purchase online or at ticket vending machines.

How many of that 88% come into the ticket office ...
to try to get a refund?
Or can't print their tickets from the TVM?
Or need to change the ticket?
Or brought a single and wanted a return?
Or they couldn't add their Railcard?
Or they don't know if they brought the right one
Did you know? 🧐

From behind the glass....
A regular customer turned up for a train that doesn't exist this week,
With my help, she made it to their daughter's wedding dress fitting.
They just came in to thank me.
From behind the glass.....
Cleared up smashed glass on platform.
Cleaned vomit and last nights kebabs from the station.
Rebooted the TVM as the screen was frozen.
Reporting broken railings.
Its only 6.45am
