    TFW introduces Pay As You Go in South East Wales

    TfW also state that:

    That may be so but there aren't many poor bookies.

    Station pubs (part two?)

    Proper craft beer, from small brewers, attracts a premium price and goes a long way to keeping those brewers in business. Cask beer, however, has a price celing which many small brewers consider to be artificially low.

    Fine at Stansted Express trying to pay with Oyster

    Take that up with the airport then. The railway doesn't use 'London' for any of the airports (discounting London City onbtge DLR).

    No.

    Purely theoretical.

    Prosecution from WMR for short fare

    All of this shifts the blame and does not work in your favour. You are required to buy a ticket before boarding (where facilities are available to do so) and "the train arriving ... quickly" actually says you didn't give yourself time. It wasn't the earliest opportunity, that was before you...

    It wasn’t me! Penalty fine

    In my opinion, for a case where it is identity that is in dispute, the OP would not need a solicitor specialising in rail fare evasion, just a general criminal lawyer. That would keep the cost down.

    Fine at Stansted Express trying to pay with Oyster

    There is also a great deal of signage to this effect at Tottenham Hale station that is very difficult to miss.

    TOCs using civil claims rather than prosecutions?

    Perhaps @RPI could comment?

    TOCs using civil claims rather than prosecutions?

    I don't think this can be seen as setting any sort of precedent. However, I do note that the attachment in that post states that the OP "bought a new railcard immediately validating his journey on this day", which suggests that they were only reported for investigation of the travel history, and...

    Apologies, misread your post.

    UNPAID FARE NOTICE (despite being told to board the train by ticket office staff)

    You are assuming just as much. It may be that split tickets were held, hence the lack of validity on LNER, but we don't know.

    Advance Tickets Between Cambridge and King's Cross?

    I think @Hadders was suggesting that the weekend Super Off Peak Day tickets might get binned off.

    Station pubs (part two?)

    I would guess that the price of the Norwegian IPA was a bit higher. If you're horrified by that you're fortunate to be drinking in a cheap area. £5 to £6 a pint isn't unusual across much of the country.

    UNPAID FARE NOTICE (despite being told to board the train by ticket office staff)

    Unless the OP returns with proper details of the ticket we are dealing in guesswork

    Getting a refund on a part-journey

    If the OP didn't go to Lewes they cannot claim to have been delayed in arriving there. Did you go to London or was it just the diversion via Lewes that was abandoned?

    Getting a refund on a part-journey

    It's not clear from your post what you actually did - "going off somewhere else" - and without this it is difficult to advise on what you may be able to claim.

    RPI asking for too much information

    The Oyster Card will show the last 10 journeys.

    Highbridge & Burnham to Cardiff Central, 10 May 2025

    As your family members will require a wheelchair space and assistance boarding and alighting, I would advise contacting GWR assisted travel as a priority. There is little point buying tickets elsewhere as this will still have to be done.
