    That was the benefit of using the machine getting the smaller sized ticket. Too much hassle trying to keep the qr code from getting folded up all day.

    Delay Repay. Is this a record payout?

    Cud easily be high 29 or low 30 by time ive walked platform and looked at platform clock from the time train arrived it'll be slightly different. Do you take the time u arrive at the station the time the doors are open or the time when you take your first step off?
