Dumb train question

leetennis · 07-16-2012, 02:27 PM

I can't quite believe it but I need to use public transport tomorrow.......

I haven't used a train for donkeys, can you just pay on the train now and purchase a ticket before?

Are you sure you couldn't walk instead?

Classic, I posted a similar thread recently, there was a chap in a hat on the train I got with a bizarre contraption around his neck, I reckon he's the man to dodge

Well atleast this dodging game will make it more fun!

If the rules are the same down the road as they are up here, you pay top price if you pay on the train after getting on at a station where there is ticket machines.

You don't get cheap day return deals etc.

Any conductor seems to be happy with the queue was too long and lets you off this one time.

Or book online your save quite a bit...had to pay £90 on the day for a return ticket for Leicester to London

£90 to get out of Leicester seems a snip to me!
