A recent claim was made by a contributor to the forum regarding station help points:
Rather than cluttering up that thread, I wonder if anyone would be able to elucidate for me please because I am curious:
- When did every single station in the country get a help point installed? I would have thought that this would be fairly major news as even some larger stations lacked help points until recently. Can anyone suggest a date?
- Whom do help points connect to? Are they all now a direct connection to train company customer service or control staff?
- What experiences do people have with help points giving out dispensation to travel? The one time I've asked for this at a help point, some time ago now, it was flatly refused. When did this change?
Thank you in advance.
there is a help point at every single station on the network where someone should be able to provide some clarity on what to do if your train is not shown to run to its destination. They will either tell you that the train is going to where you need to go, or give dispensation to travel on another service if appropriate.
