Hopefully not going too far off topic here: but how does the system that the OP used apply railcard discounts for multiple sales in the same basket?
Most systems I've seen do not allow more than one railcarded ticket to be added at the same time.
I once had a "non paying customer" inform me that she had lost her purse and went through all the usual excuses to waste time and avoid paying.
Another passenger, a regular who boarded at the same station, had witnessed her remonstrations on board and enquired as to the reason. When I explained...
Unfortunately for you your actions fell into the classic "pay when challenged" behaviour exhibited by fare dodgers when presented by a revenue barrier at their alighting station.
You would think so. However, I know of at least three drivers who have had serious criminal charges against them (two proven & one not proven). All managed to keep their jobs. The management, when queried, stated that there was no specific rule requiring dismissal for that particular offence (it...

I deal with the two points there is reverse. There are no such things as English pounds (not least because the Bank of England is not an English bank) so Scottish banks (in as much as banks such as RBS remain Scottish) can not hold them as security. What does happen is that all non Bank of...
And that is exactly what was formed. The Bank of England is the United Kingdom central bank. In theory both currencies were merged to form one new currency (in practice the English system was used as the new currency).
Therefore there is no such thing as English or Scottish currency, nor...
