    Trip Report - Merseyrail to Southport, Northern to Wigan and Bolton - 2024/04/13

    When they extended platforms 2 & 3 at Southport , they blocked off access at the bottom of those two platforms while they excavated to extend the platforms. My safety concern was to access the Merseyrail platforms 1, 2 & 3 was through a short but narrow corrider. However it`s all been done now.

    "Failed to provide a valid ticket when approached"

    As a regular Merseyrail user I can confirm that there are no TVM`s at Bootle New Strand. There is an *allegedly* manned ticket office open from start to the close of service.

    Lost Merseytravel Rail duplicate season ticket

    Work won`t be bothered about you losing the ticket as your still paying them back from your wages. What you can`t do though is ask for another season ticket loan until your current loan expires. There is nothing to stop you asking Merseytravel for a second replacement all they can do is say no...

    Should you inform your employer of being arrested?

    Civil Servant here In the two departments I have worked in my HR Guidance said I have to notify my manager if 1) I am arrested 2) If I receive a Fixed Penalty Notice 3) If I am convicted in Court Failure to do so leads me open to being dismissed for Gross Misconduct.

    Merseyrail/Travel ticketing policy

    I commute (Southport to Moorfields and back) twice a week for work and I get the £6 ticket (on the Metro card) so if the trains get cancelled I can hop on the X2/47/300 bus and still get home. To me its worth paying the extra 5p a day for the convenience.
