Young Son booked for a visit to his Young lady Friend with advances
Gets to Euston just in time but find his rail card has expired and does not have enough time to buy another before his train leaves
What does the gateline do?
They told him if he bought another he could travel on the next train
He did and I spoke to the gateline person on the phone who assured me that they would advise the train manager to let him travel.
He had no issues
From this we can take away
Despite their reputation the Gate line staff at Euston can be helpful and I am surprised and very appreciative ( a ticket allowing immediate travel would have been just under £60.00 )
They have the discretion to allow travel on a non booked train
It is much better to fix the problem before boarding a train
