On my Northern train to Stoke on Trent en route to Uttoxeter yesterday my ticket was checked. No other checks, not even on Avanti from Stoke to Stockport.
Been gripped on both a GWR IET and LNER Azuma today. 2/2
Was checked on an early morning turbo out of Temple Meads yesterday. 1/1
Did 2 GWR IETs and 2 HEX 387s on Wednesday and was checked 3/4 times.
Wasn't checked on either XC Voyager on Tuesday but the TMs did walk through a couple of times.
If you'd been on home turf - no chance !!
Scotrail no checks in over a year and they want a pay rise ....
If it’s anything like other TOCs the option wouldn’t have been at the choice of the conductors, it would have been health and safety reps and higher management.
So wether they wanted to or not, the option was not available
Given that health, and hence CV restrictions, is the responsibility of devolved governments there can be no 'national' (as in UK or even GB wide) mandate.Surely what's good for the goose.....?
Was it not mandated nationally but left up to individual TOC's ?

This’ll be what you were thinking of.Ticket check on TPE tonight. If I’m not mistaken, they have some sort of rugged handheld device to scan tickets now as opposed to a camera on a phone.

Southend, London or Manchester? I guess that TPE implies the latter but .....Revenue Protection boarded at Victoria today on the way round to the Airport on TPE. No check from the guard though.
